The most carefully considered military advice, the most stirring speeches, the most personal letters: this encyclopedic compendium of Civil War quotations covers strategy, army life, victory and defeat, death, and hundreds of other topics. Military buffs, history enthusiasts, and speakers will find this a wonderful reference and a source for well-crafted words of wisdom. Each quotation comes from one high above rather than from the ranks. Sections, arranged alphabetically, cover dozens of topics. "Absalom, My Absalom" gathers the grief of fathers who lost their sons to the fighting. "The Negro in Arms" discusses the black soldier. "The Press" has George B. McClellan's seething denunciation of The New York Times -- similar to many that appeared during the Vietnam War. It covers the war that divided the nation, from start to finish!
