A short account of the final days of the Civil War where Grant forces Lee into bloody battles of the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, North Anna, Cold Harbor, and Petersburg. Grant forces the Confederates to use their most precious resource--manpower, and wins the Civil War. Good insights on how Lincoln backed Grant to the full degree in his waging of the war. Also a good overview of the final days in both Richmond and Washington D. C. For those who doubt Grant's genius, they should read this book.

Unfortunately WW II Collectibles tries to cover it all but in eighty pages can only scratch the surface. This is not a book for serious collectors, maybe a introductory glimpse at the variety of items. Very limited detail on the depth of these items various models, date changes variations. Little is said about the vast flood of reproduction material out there especially for a book written in the 1990's. While it purports information on conservation of memorabilia little guidance is provided on storage preservation or display.

This book did not provide specific information on how different companies developed non-financial reporting indicators or what different industries are using. It was very difficult to understand and follow and does not provide state of the art information on key performance indicators. This book seemed esoteric and overly academic without practical application, not surprising given the source is the Financial Executives Research Foundation.

I need to have this book for my class.
