Southern Storm

I am really enjoying this account of Sherman's March. I've got a review in the works, but just now got an email from the Pritzker Military Library telling me there is a webcast tomorrow about the book:

Thank you for posting the link. I'm partway throught the book now. So far it's pretty good.

I am realy liking this book; the format and way it was done seems to suit "my way" of thinking. Also the weather info is neat. I wouldn't have thought it was so cold in GA during Nov. complete with snow.
Thanks for the book review. I will be interested in hearing the comments.

I got the book for Christmas (along with 8 others, got a good woman lol). Haven't started it yet, I am a slow but a stickler for reading and looking at other books (opinions) on what I'm reading (memory not very good). Every review I've seen gives it high marks.

Well, I never got around to that review, but I will say I liked the day-by-day format (even different parts of each day are described, especially in the early parts of the march), and the weather conditions, etc. These are details one doesn't find in most accounts.
