Witness to War: The Civil War 1861-1865 highlights the major events of this critical conflict by presenting personal accounts of its battles, proclamations, victories, and defeats - in the words of those who were there, as only they could tell it.
The letters, speeches, and anecdotes of both Union and Confederate soldiers - some in print for the first time - give a broad and wide-ranging vision of the terrifying battles waged. Featuring writings from leaders such as Abraham Lincoln, Jefferson Davis, and Robert E. Lee, as well as letters sent home by brave front-line solders, these narratives provide a stunning true-to-life portrait of the Civil War. Powerful and immediate, they are history's most intimate records of The War Between the States.
