It gives a very detailed day to day account of the Civil War. General Longstreet is a very articulate, matter-of-fact person. His perspective on the many battles he was in is very interesting and enlightening. His stature throughout much of the deep South is not regarded highly; however, much of this is due to exceptions taken by other officers that he was critical of and the fact that he put aside the war as much as possible and got on with his life. This included working for President (General) Grant with whom he was a lifelong friend. Many throughout the South regarded this as almost treasonous. It is very likely the reason he is not on the Stone Mountain Memorial. Frankly, my opinion is he should be. He was instrumental in many battles and was regarded by General Lee as his "old war horse". I recommend this book to anyone interested in the Civil War."; Civil War Library Series; 9.3 X 6.9 X 2.5 inches; 690 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
