Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“An eloquent ending to one of the great historical accomplishments of our time…[It] will have an enduring place in our national records.” New York Times
“A distinguished and moving narrative of the last years of the Civil War…Great history written in a grand style…Outstanding.” New York Herald
“Summons…the urgencies and agonies of battle, the intricate maneuvers of command, the terrible trials of leaders tested by fire, whether at the front or at the capitals…Catton’s hand at the helm of this book is marked by a sureness drawn from the certainty of well-sifted knowledge: he has reviewed and recollected in tranquility all the moves on the board and compassed them, with a superb command, marked by balance and clarity.” Kirkus Reviews
