2.The American Civil War: A Military HistoryThe American Civil War: A Military History
from Random House Audio
Price: $21.75

Customer Review:
Like many of the reviewers, I'm a Keegan fan, but not a Civil War expert. He delivered here as promised, offering unique insights about that inevitable American conflict from both a British and a military historian's perspective. His observations about the great European wars -- not only what... more info

3.U. S. Grant: American Hero, American Myth (Civil War America)U. S. Grant: American Hero, American Myth (Civil War America)
from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $18.50

Customer Review:
While this book covers how such a popular general and President lost his popularity through the years of time I fear that many people know neither that he was a General nor even the President of the United States. This book is not so much a study of his life, his military career or his presidency,... more info

4.The Hemingses of Monticello: An American FamilyThe Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $11.78

Customer Review:
I received what I ordered on time and in perfect condition, well packaged. I had checked the book out of the library, but it was in terrible condition. It is a 600+-page book, so I am happy to have my own copy to read over time (and it is so well worth reading).

from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $11.70

Customer Review:

This is probably the best one volume civil war history there is. I'm giving it one star only so that this review appears alongside some of the genuine one star reviews. As far as I can tell, pretty much all the people who don't like the book object to its political position: it isn't... more info

from Vintage
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
After reading "This Republic of Suffering" I was still struggling with what the central thesis to the book was. Every chapter contains excellent primary source information about the death and the industry that arose because of the enormous casualties of the war, but how does it tie in together? Of... more info

8.Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. GrantPersonal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant
from CreateSpace
Price: $17.95

Customer Review:
Ulysses S. Grant was a humble man, and his book is extremely honest. Readers will be hard-pressed to find one word of embellishment or bragging. While there are many fascinating sections to this book, Grant's explanation of the Fugitive Slave act as the trigger of the war (they made the Northerners... more info

10.Abraham LincolnAbraham Lincoln
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $6.99

Customer Review:
More a long essay than a book, "Abraham Lincoln" surveys the life of the 16th president from birth to his fateful night when he was shot. In straightforward English, McPherson lays out Lincoln's life in easy prose and emulates the style of Lincoln himself: concise, eloquent, and profound.
