This is the book Civil War enthusiasts have been waiting for.

There are many, many studies of the Civil War. Books have been written on its economic effects, its political causes, its relationship to western expansion. But the real fascination of the war is the story of combat, men in battle. Combat: The Civil War tells this story in the words of men who actually marched into battle. We share their experiences, their fears, and their moments of bravery at Vicksburg, on board the Monitor, at Gettysburg, and at the bloody battle of Antietam. These eyewitness accounts are interspersed with brief commentaries by some of our most respected historians - Douglas Southall Freeman and John J. Pullen, for example - who illuminate the accounts by placing them in their proper context.

Those who have been looking for one volume that manages to tell the whole story of the war in a clear way need look no further. Combat: The Civil War is a gritty and readable history. Immediate and at the same time informative, here is that rare work that actually brings the struggles and characters of the past to life.

I enjoyed this compilation of firsthand accounts. These accounts bring details and perspectives not easily captured by other works which seek to summarize. The reader is excellent, and brought just enough vocal variation to the works to make them even more interesting.

This is the perfect book to break up the endless volumes of fantastic academic civil war history. The editor does a great job weaving together first hand accounts of the war into a tapestry that marches from Sumpter to Appomattox

Really fleshes out the history

This is a great book for the casual Civil War buff. If you already know the battles and players, this book is full of interesting and horrifying memoirs of the men on the front line. I would highly recommend this book for its thrilling narratives, if the actual history doesn’t back them up. The scenes in this book were written by the men who fought those battles, and the first person perspective is much more visceral and entertaining then anything the academic histories could provide.

Told in first hand accounts, I found this book outstanding and very moving. It is full of small details that are so interesting and create a vivid new experience.

One of the best…
