A propos de cet article

First edition with "1" on number line on copy right page. End papers are bright and clean. The interior pages have NO writing, tears or creases. Binding tight. This is NOT an ex-lib NOR is it a remainder. Over sized book. DJ is clean and bright and has shelf wear along edges, and mild rubbing on DJ covers. DJ is NOT price clipped. Note: We use "Fine" book condition judiciously; only when the book exhibits no flaws. A Fine book closely approaches ?As New? condition and may not have been previously owned. Any flaws (writing, tears, creases) are exceptions to a Fine condition and should be clearly described for a book and dust jacket.

A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

"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
