Synopsis
This last work of America's greatest Civil War historian explores the matters at the heart and soul of what brought this nation to civil war. Here, Catton reflects not on detailed military history but rather on the actual experience of army life for the common soldier. He plunges into the spirits of men in their time to uncover the motives and emotions that caused the flood of war. Infused with Catton's intimate sense of human experience, we feel this work as much as read it. Historic drawings by soldier-artist John Geyser reflect army life through the eyes of a young private in the Union army. Edited from many hours of tapes after Bruce Catton's death, "Reflections on the Civil War" was hailed by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch as a "wonderful book filled with insight, wisdom and eloquence"., Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Bruce Catton was America's greatest Civil War historian, and he made the events of that seminal conflict come alive for millions. In this, his final book, edited from many hours of tapes after Catton's death, he goes right to the heart and soul of what brought this nation to the battlefield. He reflects not only on military history, but also on the actual experience of army life for the common soldier; 17 period drawings by soldier-artist John Geyser, a young private in the Union Army, enhance the insightful words. Catton plunges into the spirit of the time to uncover the motives and emotions that caused the flood of war.
