Review:
I do enjoy the way that Larson tells a tale. I also thought I had a good understanding of the start of the Civil War. I did not. I thought I had a thorough understanding of Lincoln's cabinet. I still learned more. Larson does a good job of building a vision through a character and then extending that vision to other characters. Rusk is an excellent example whose life truly follows the story arc. Having visited the batteries that play a prominent role in this book throughout my childhood (to include a visit to the library now in Fort Moultrie, I could see through my memory the sites described in the book.
