Full Synopsis
The acclaimed sweeping history of a nation at war with itself, told here for the first time by the people who lived it.

Historian David Williams has written the first account of the American Civil War as viewed though the eyes of ordinary people—foot soldiers, slaves, women, prisoners of war, draft resisters, Native Americans, and others. Richly illustrated with little-known anecdotes and firsthand testimony, this path-breaking narrative moves beyond presidents and generals to tell a new and powerful story about America's most destructive conflict.

"Rick Adamson is an excellent narrator for this interesting and substantial history. His voice is easy to listen to and direct, so listeners can focus on the content of the audiobook." ---AudioFile
