Final book of the Rebels & Yankees series. Having covered the men and commanders it is only appropriate that the battlefields on which they faught and died be covered. This book does the job quite well as well as completes the trilogy . Well illustrated and well written. The maps are most informative. My only complaint is that it only covers Mobile bay as a sample naval battle even though there were others just as significant to the conflict. A good book to have for those interested in this subject.
Excellent

This book is really good because it uses very detailed maps and pictures of relics found at the battlefields. The description of what happened during each battle is written so well you feel as though your actually there. I would recomend this book to anyone who is interested in the Civil War.
