James McPherson's writings on the civil war help define this conflict like no other writer I've encountered; his insights illuminate the political phenomena that brought about and sustained the war, and his analysis of the battles and the strategy that shaped them reveal the hearts and minds of the men who fought and those who planned the fighting. These essays are a brilliant further contribution to a body of work that is unparalleled in revealing the politics and personalities of this period of American history.
