This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War by Drew Gilpin Faust published by Vintage (2008) 368 pages. $29.95 Hardcover $14.99 Kindle.
The book has been sitting in my bookcase for ten years unread. I took it down last month to read when I found out that my step-daughter had started reading it. The book reads quickly and covers ground that is often neglected in popular histories. Catton and Foote typically neglect a lot that can be found here.
Note: This review will be posted in several installments.
