This book on the Vicksburg Campaign is packed with information, but it dragged a bit in certain parts. I learned a lot, but I wish it had been a bit more concise. Still, it’s a solid resource for anyone studying this part of the Civil War.

Disappointing Coverage
I had high hopes for this book, but it didn’t meet my expectations. The details were overwhelming, and I felt some key events were glossed over. It’s not the best option if you’re looking for a clear overview of the campaign.

Great for History Enthusiasts
As someone who loves Civil War history, I appreciated the depth of this book. It has some great insights into the campaigns in the West, but at times, it felt a bit dense. Still, it’s a valuable addition to my collection!
