by Russell F. Weigley (Author)
"The crowning achievement of one of America's most distinguished military historians." --Lincoln Prize jury
"Readers will find much to debate in this book--including . . . its affirmation that, because of emancipation, 'the Civil War calls for a rethinking of the attitude . . . that war is always futile, that its rewards never match its cost, that any conflict [must be] immediately decisive and virtually without loss of American lives.'" --Gary W. Gallagher
