1.The Killer AngelsThe Killer Angels
from Ballantine Books
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
Once in a while I get caught reading a book that I really do not enjoy, but the redeeming quality is their educational value. Like flossing your teeth, while not enjoyable, these books are at least good for you. Unfortunately, The Killer Angels, a story about the civil war battle of Gettysburg, was... more info

2.A Terrible Glory: Custer and the Little Bighorn - the Last Great Battle of the American WestA Terrible Glory: Custer and the Little Bighorn - the Last Great Battle of the American West
from Little, Brown and Company
Price: $17.81

Customer Review:
I am a direct decendent of Sitting Bull (as I have been told) and am delighted to read an account of this happening other than showing Custer as a hero. The army was made up of a bunch of men who could not make a living with any skills at all, so they chose to ride into the West and take lives and a... more info

3.Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era (Oxford History of the United States)Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era (Oxford History of the United States)
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
If you wanted to read just one book to get an understanding of the Civil War and its effects on the United States, you could do little better than James PcPherson's book. It is an intimidating book at over 800 pages. This thickness comes from the fact that the book does not just cover the battles... more info

4.Gettysburg: A Novel of the Civil WarGettysburg: A Novel of the Civil War
from St. Martin's Paperbacks
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
This is a fine alternative history. Being an avid Civil War buff, historical wargame player, and historian, I find the novel to be entertaining and fairly plausible, that is, up until the destruction of the Army Of The Potomac (AP) after the porposed Battle Of Union Mills (BUM).
Indeed, during... more info

5.GettysburgGettysburg
from Mariner Books
Price: $11.56

Customer Review:
I'm a layman, and I started reading this to better educate myself about Gettysburg before taking a trip there. My take is the author wrote this for an audience who is already familiar with the battle. There is a tremendous amount of detail and minutiae that may be interesting to some people, but was... more info

6.The Battle for Spain: The Spanish Civil War 1936-1939The Battle for Spain: The Spanish Civil War 1936-1939
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $11.56

Customer Review:
Lest I repeat what others have already written so well (and so many times), I will just affirm that this book is mainly up to Beevor's usual standard. Beevor has done us a great service in writing it as well, because the Spanish Civil War is probably one of the more poorly understood wars of the... more info

7.The Widow of the SouthThe Widow of the South
from Grand Central Publishing
Price: $10.19

Customer Review:
Never would I have thought anyone could write this well about such a devastating battle. I had previously read of the battle at Franklin, but this novel adds the necessary context to many of the events that took place. A great deal of research and thought went into writing this well, and the author... more info

8.The Maps of Gettysburg: The Gettysburg Campaign, June 3 - July 13, 1863The Maps of Gettysburg: The Gettysburg Campaign, June 3 - July 13, 1863
from Savas Beatie
Price: $26.40

Customer Review:
I can't begin to tell you how many descriptions of Civil War troop movements I've been frustrated by: this brigade moved here or that regiment moved there. I am a visual person, I learn best when I can visualize things... therefore I, by my nature, am a map person. Most books on Civil War battles... more info

In late summer 1862, the Confederate Army is invading the United States of America. Major Nate Starbuck has been given command of the Yellowlegs, a battalion composed of failures and cowards.

from Modern Library
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:
KILLER ANGELS is one of those books I've always wanted to read but for some reason I just never got around to it. It is my favorite genre(historical fiction) and one of my favorite periods in American history(Civil War), I've lost count of the number of people who recommended it to me. So one fine... more info
