Böcker av Albert Nofi

A fascinating and entertaining anthology about the American Civil War, throwing new light on all aspects of the war, and how it affected America and Americans, then and down to the present.

June 1815

Long recognized as one of the best introductions to the campaign, Albert A. Nofi's The Gettysburg Campaign does not focus exclusively on the three days of the battle, but shows how events of May and June of 1863 set the stage for the engagement, and traces Lee's retreat from the field and the hesitant Northern pursuit, a fascinating tale in itself.

Renowned historian and military commentator Albert A. Nofi brings together for the first time in paperback a series of hard-hitting essays on World War II's most pivotal campaigns clear, concise and packed with information.

An engaging collection of more than 500 startling facts, anecdotes and other small jottings about America's War Between the States. Arranged roughly in chronological order, with chapters for pre-war and post-war and the five war years, these items are not only amusing and entertaining, but give considerable insight into many of the key personalities of the war.

Books about the Civil War are as numerous as the war's casualties. This one is different. A Civil War Treasury goes beyond the battle histories and memoirs to offer a unique, intimate, and informative portrayal of this nation's greatest catastrophe, the War Between the States.
