An improvised war,not an improvised book.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This history of the Civil War is far better than any other I have read in that Nevins looks behind the actions to seek reasons and explanations for them. Before I have wondered why so many of the decisions were made the way they were. This book looks at the men and the situations to analyse the whys and wherefores of the apparent inability of the Union to get organized, and the stupid decisions made. It presents Lincoln in a fair and reasonable light.
