Pulitzer Prize–winning historian James McPherson offers a stirring account of the the Civil War, illuminated by personal anecdotes from the soldiers at the battlefront and the civilians at home, as well as profiles of historical luminaries such as Robert E. Lee, Abraham Lincoln, Jefferson Davis, and Ulysses S. Grant.
McPherson also explores the varied roles that women played during the war, healthcare on the battlefield, and the demise of slavery. The narrative is highlighted with black-and-white photographs taken by photographers Mathew Brady and Timothy O’Sullivan, period oil paintings, and key campaign and battlefield maps.
