In October of 2023 we toured the low country of Charleston, Beaufort and Savannah with a couple of friends and I took the opportunity to tick-off a lifetime bucket list item with a visit to the place that is central to this book. I wish this had been published beforehand. Sigh.
Very well researched. I’ve read most of the author's books and enjoyed them all. This book methodically takes you through all the events leading to the start of the Civil War with personal thoughts and accounts of key individuals. Amazing story that provides insight into the beginnings of the bloodiest and most deadly fight ever.
Anyone who has any interest in the civil war, appreciates American history, startling parallels to current events and a big dose of hubris will enjoy this read.
One of my favorite authors...
