This updated edition offers a thorough exploration of the Civil War, blending battle narratives with political, social, and cultural contexts. Distinguished historian Charles Roland contrasts the leadership styles and traits of key figures, particularly Lincoln and Davis, examining why Union leaders were more effective. His insights into human nature and the interplay of intention and chance elevate the narrative beyond mere military history, presenting the Civil War as a profound saga of the American people, told with emotional depth and historical clarity.
