"Nothing in our time makes the Civil War as alive as the writings of Bruce Catton." --The Baltimore Sun "No one ever wrote American history with more easy grace, beauty and emotional power, or greater understanding of its meaning, than Bruce Catton. There is a near-magic power of imagination in Catton's work that seemed to project him physically into the battlefields, along the dusty roads and to the campfires of another age." --Oliver Jensen, former editor of American Heritage "[Catton combines] a scholar's appreciation of the Grand Design with a newsman's keenness for meaningful vignette.... Catton created an 'enlisted man's-eye view' of the war that treated humanely the errors on both sides." --Newsweek
