James M. McPherson, professor emeritus of U.S. history at Princeton, is one of the foremost scholars of the Civil War. In this informative and meticulously researched masterpiece, he clarifies the differing ways of life and philosophy that led to this shattering conflict.

Abraham Lincoln wondered whether in a free government the minority have the right to break up the government. Jefferson Davis felt forced to take up arms to guarantee his states rights. McPherson merges the words of these men and other political luminaries, housewives, and soldiers from both armies with his own concise analysis of the war to create a story as compelling as any novel.

Battle Cry of Freedom vividly traces how a new nation was forged when a war both sides were sure would amount to little dragged for four years and cost more American lives than all other wars combined. Narrator Jonathan Davis powerful reading brings to life the many voices of the Civil War.

I picked up this book when I visited the Gettysburg Battlefield last year. It was designated as a “Staff Recommendation”. I’m thrilled I bought it. There was so much detail, not just about the battles, and the military personalities that played key roles in the Civil War, but it also provided detailed accounts of the social, economic and political landscape leading up to the war. This is a must-read for anyone looking to understand what led to the Civil War and the impacts of the war even today.

This book is a beast. Very thorough and complete review. The narrator is quite slow, could listen at 2.0 speed without issue.

Very good overall

I was turned onto this book by workers at the bookstore at the battlefield of Fredericksburg. Their recommendation was outstanding. Anyone interested in this history should read this book. Absolutely worth it.

I’m certainly not the first to praise “Battle Cry of Freedom,” but I will add my name to those who have. Great book, and gives you a full accounting of the war. Wish I could remember everything I’ve learned in this book.

I liked the narrative that brought a wide lens to the story of the conflict and what led up to it and how the war unfolded.

Really enjoyed it. How strong point is in highlighting the political, economic and societal factions within the story of the civil war as well as the shift in attitudes as it went along

I'm not a huge civil war buff, but this book is so expertly written and interesting, the 40 hours ends up feeling like it's too short. The author perfectly explains the many, many nuances of the politics and events of the time, and beautifully sets the stage for the war with everything that led up to it. He provides a thorough background for people not well versed in the history, but also digs into the details for people who might already know about the events. The narration and audio quality are also great. Can't recommend it enough

One of my favorite books ever

The most useful book on the subject, in my opinion. Writing is wonderful, the reading is near perfect.
Not a user inclined to give 5 stars easily...

The degree of detail in the narrative stood out most in this work.
