Essential Library of the Civil War

Essential Library of the Civil War explores the deadliest conflict in US history from many angles. Each subject is covered with gripping narrative text, historic photographs, primary sources, and extensive back matter.

REVIEW:
These well-written narratives explain the who, what, where, when, and how of the Civil War reinforced by boxed highlights, maps, pictures, and illustrations. The long-ranging impact of the Civil War is reflected in discussions of contemporary topics such as the Civil Rights Movement, Twelve Years a Slave, and Black Lives Matter. The role of women is also highlighted. . . .This is a solid purchase for school library collections. Recommended.
