The Legacies: Civil War Journal

This is an excellent read. This book takes you to places and things that you may not have read much about. Any serious Civil War reader needs this in his library.

A very interesting reference book, however I would not recomend it to the reader who is more interested in the battles or leaders in the war. The book touched on a lower level not often heard about the Civil War, such as women in the war, slaves, trains in the war, and photogriphers in the war. I for one am not to interested in these topics but still found the book very readable. It is a fine conclusion to the other two books in the History Channels three volume set.
