Unabridged Audiobook
This is a quite comprehensive look at the American civil war, with a particular focus on the politics, economics and fighting.There are occasional amusing anecdotes but they are not particularly frequent. A slight warning to those looking for a civil WAR book, this is a slow burner. I don't think the war starts proper until 9 or 12 hours in. Before that this book talks a lot about the politics involved and the economics that are the background for this particular era. If you're looking for a broad overview this book is great, but if you're looking for something strictly war focused look elsewhere.
A comprehensive social, economic, political and military history of the Civil War Era. Recommend to anyone who wants to educate themselves on this period of time.
