===================================================================== Match: Bowles Source: GEN-MAT-HX-L@rootsweb.com From: "Helen" <Helenh@pdq.net> Subject: Civil War History - See Names Storm Over The Land, A Profie of the Civil War, Carl Sandburg, 1939, 1942-no later date, but I do think it is a later reprint. Blue hardback with silver printing, illustrated dustcover - both in very good condition other than a crease to the inside front dustcover flap, and a small errant penmark on the front freepage which almost looks more like a defect in the paper than a pen mark. 6-3/4 x 9-1/2, 440 pages, lovely pen and ink illustrations similar to those found in a Harpers book, some maps, soldier's ditties, nice sized print, index, really in wonderful condition. Per the jacket: "The United States of America had its national unity hammered out in storm - the four tremendous years of the Civil War. Here is Carl Sandburg's storyof those years - campaigns and generals, the common soldier in struggle, laughter and daring - politics behind battle lines, clashes of loyalists and malcontents, dark hours on the home front, unbreakable faiths in high and low places. Storm over the Land is taken mainly from the four volumes of Abraham Lincoln: The War Years. Mr. Sandburg has rewritten some sections to form a single volume, with all the mastery of detail which characterized the great biography from which it is taken, and which forms a complelte story. It is a narrative unmatched in dramaatic suspense, because it is our own drama, the storm over our own land." This is a book for the common man as well as the historian that offers interesting, easily read and understandable coverage of a dark time in America's history. There are personal stories as well as war stories and accounts, a book that one could enjoy reading a chapter at night without having to research the next night to see what critical and strategic point must be remembered to understand what is going on. Read it, learn from it, and enjoy it.
