"American scholarship is richer for this unique exercise. More important--the great community, . . . one again sorely beset by unsettled problems of sectional rivalry and world tension, can read this book with great profit. Too few historians put their talents at the disposal of society so effectively." -- American Historical Review "A brilliant, straightforward summary of the background of America's favorite armchair war.
