Based on the celebrated PBS television series about the men and women who lived through the cataclysmic trial of our nationhoodthe complete text of the magisterial illustrated work of history that The New York Times hailed as a treasure for the eye and mind.The Civil War defined us as what we are and it opened us to being what we became, good and bad things.... It was the crossroads of our being, and it was a hell of a crossroads: the suffering, the enormous tragedy of the whole thing. Shelby Foote, from The Civil WarNow Geoffrey Wards magisterial work of history is available in a textonly edition that interweaves the authors narrative with the voices of the men and women who lived through the cataclysmic trial of our nationhood: not just Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and Robert E. Lee, but genteel Southern ladies and escaped slaves, cavalry officers and common foot soldiers who fought in Yankee blue and Rebel gray.The Civil War also includes essays by our most distinguished historians of the era: Don E. Fehrenbacher, on the wars origins; Barbara J. Fields, on the freeing of the slaves; Shelby Foote, on the wars soldiers and commanders; James M. McPherson, on the political dimensions of the struggle; and C. Vann Woodward, assessing the America that emerged from the wars ashes.

As a history buff, I found this complete text of The Civil War absolutely captivating. The narrative style makes the complex events easy to grasp, and I love how it’s tied to the PBS series. It’s a hefty book, but worth every page!

Great for History Lovers!
I bought this for my dad who is obsessed with the Civil War, and he couldn't be happier. The detail and storytelling really bring history to life. It’s a great companion to the PBS series, but the size can be a bit intimidating!

Interesting, but Slightly Dense
I appreciate the effort put into the narrative history of the Civil War, but I found some sections quite dense. While it's informative, there were times I struggled to stay engaged. Still, it’s a valuable resource.

Not What I Expected
Honestly, I was a bit let down by this book. The writing style didn’t resonate with me, and some chapters felt really long. It does have some great information, but it’s just not my cup of tea.
