About this ebook
A thrilling, page-turning piece of writing that describes the forces conspiring to tear apart the United States—with the disintegrating political processes and rising tempers finally erupting at Bull Run.
" . . . a major work by a major writer, a superb recreation of the twelve crucial months that opened the Civil War." —The New York Times
