The Civil War
The Civil War recounts the American conflict of 1861–65, beginning with secession and the dispute over slavery and federal authority. It follows the major eastern and western campaigns, the leadership of Abraham Lincoln, Jefferson Davis and their generals, and the transformation of the war through emancipation. The book also examines the experience of soldiers and civilians, the destruction of slavery and the political consequences of Union victory for the reunited United States.
