The Civil War in 50 Objects

Harold Holzer. This excellent collection of 50 Civil War artifacts is accompanied by beautifully written and incisive essays by acclaimed historian Holzer. Timed for publication to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, the book's 50 artifacts have been well selected in an effort to emphasize the personal, human aspects of the conflict. For both Civil War buffs and general readers, this collection should be a treasure.--Booklist
