Not bad for the price October 23, 2008 As an avid civil war reader I was a little disappointed at the amount of really new material. Most of the stories will be familiar to civil war buffs.

unique civil war book July 12, 2008 I can recommend this book because the facts I found were not only interesting, but also important to know as an American. I think every history teacher should probably own a copy. Thanks!
Strange and Interesting facts found while researching the Civil War. May 3, 2008 Great read, read it in a day. What odd things happened in those times and were put on record for us to find these many years later. Fun and filled with fun facts.
