Leather. Condición: Near Fine. Reprint. 5.75"x8.5" 546 indexed pgs. X-library w/graphics. Navy leather. Soldiers blind-stamped on front. 3 gilt edges. Red silk ribbons.

Porter intended to bring readers into such intimate contact with the Union commander that they could know him as well as those who served by his side. He acquits himself admirably in this undertaking, giving us a moving human document and a remarkable perspective on a crucial chapter of American history. …
