History????

[Rev. Rye]

I'm currently on an American Civil War kick. And, looking on Amazon.de, I've found that the book I believe to be the definitive account of the conflict, James McPherson's "The Battle Cry of Freedom" is even available in German, under the title of Für die Freiheit sterben. Sadly, Shelby Foote's three-volume account isn't available in German, but, of course, since the author was from Mississippi, a state that only officially ratified the abolition of slavery six months ago, it does have a slight Pro-Confederate bias.
