The Civil War
The history of North Carolina has always fascinated me and so has the Civil War. Wouldn't it be great if there was a book that tied the two together? Thankfully there is. "The Civil War in North Carolina" by John Barrett.

While no major battles of the Civil War were fought in North Carolina, the state did see its share of skirmishes. In striking detail, this book covers the beginning of the war until it's conclusion. It's truly fascinating to read about the places and events that took place one hundred and forty years ago.

The research by Barrett in constructing an acurate view of the state during the war is top notch. A lot of footnotes accompany the text. A highly recommended and worthwhile read for both Civil War and history buffs of the Tar Heel state.

Civil War enthusiasts should learn about this campaign!
Sherman's March to the Sea is well-known, however his subsequent campaign up through the Carolinas is not. Sherman is widely considered to be the inventor of manuever warfare, and as such this is required reading. It is little known that this campaign continued for 9 days after Appomattox!
