You'll enjoy it, Bob. It's a superb account of the war from the days immediately following Gettysburg right on to the bitter end, and it gives equal dignity to both sides, which is something I like to see. Grant makes a good impression on me too...an honest man taking on a herculean task with utmost determination and efficiency. Lee is probably the most unforgettable commander of all time...a man who was no admirer of slavery, but fought for his home ground with absolute faith in the rightness of his cause.
