Summary: Informative with Beautiful Images
Comment: I received this book for my birthday and couldn't be more pleased. The photos and text are extremely well done. The 144-page book is a mix of well known and rarely published Civil War photographs, printed in chronological order. The author takes pains to include images from Western battlefields (a sadly neglected part of the Civil War). The captions contain material that will interest both rookie and veteran Civil War buffs alike. Civil War Battlefields Then and Now makes a great gift!

Summary: Great Idea -- not so great pictures
Comment: As the title says, this was a great idea. Unfortunately, the photographers fell down on the job in too many instances--not all, but too many. I'm very familiar with many of these places and the idea of "then & now" photography. Some of the pictures are "right on." Some are probably close enough. But unfortunately some are not even close. I give this 3 stars...if you'll never travel to these places, and you don't really care about the "exactness" of the "then & now" pairs, buy this book. But know that it's not 100% accurate.

Summary: I bought this as gift for my children
Comment: My Sons are very interested in history and I originally bought this book for them, but I enjoyed reading it too. The pictures are clear and informative. The narratives beneath are perfect for someone interested in history, but not necessarily an expert.I recommend it for adults and children,8 and above, who have a curiosity for the Civil War.
