Contents:
The hurricane comes later. Sowing the wind ; Where they were bound to go ; Light over the marshes -- Not to be ended quickly. Men who could be led ; In time of revolution ; The important first trick ; The rising shadows -- Men who shaped the war. The romantics to the rescue ; Trail of the pathfinder ; He must be willing to fight -- To march to terrible music. Sambo was not sambo ; War along the border ; Come on, you volunteers! ; To the deep south -- A long war ahead. Hardtack in an empty hand ; Springtime of promise ; Invitation to General Lee ; Delusion and defeat -- Turning point. Kill, confiscate or destroy ; Cheers in the starlight ; High-water mark -- I see no end. The best there was in the ranch ; There was no patience ; Thin moon and cold mist ; Down the river -- Swing of the pendulum. The hour of darkness ; Stalemate in the swamps ; The face of the enemy ; End of a campaign -- The trees and the river. Final miscalculation ; Moment of truth ; Unvexed to the sea -- Last of the might-have-beens. Pursuit in Tennessee ; Ghoul-haunted woodland ; The pride of soldiers ; A half dozen roasted acorns -- And keep moving on. Year of Jubilo ; Vote of confidence ; The great decision ; A question of time -- We will not cease. That bright particular star ; Wind across the sky ; The grapes of wrath ; The enemy will be attacked -- Twilight and victory. Reap the whirlwind ; The fire and the night ; Telegram in cipher ; Candlelight.
Summary: This history deals with the entire scope of the Civil War--from the months of unrest and hysteria that led to Fort Sumter through the Union victory.
