| | 1. |  | The American Civil War: A Military History
from Alfred A. Knopf
Price: $55.99
Customer Review:
It's hard to write something new in a field that is so well covered, but John Keegan is just such a writer to do so. I have always enjoyed his works, so I picked up the book in Europe.

This is a great book if you don't have time to go too in-depth into any particular part of the war. It has a good balance of detail and grand strategy and is very well written. Also integrates the social and political context seamlessly.

from Peter Smith Pub Inc
Price: $24.80
Customer Review:
I recently finished Bernard Cornwell's lengthy series about Rifleman Richard Sharpe and the Napoleonic wars -- the last volume of which focuses, naturally, on Waterloo -- and then followed that up with Cornwell's newest, about the nearly mythical Battle of Agincourt.
