A Civil War Treasury presents anecdotes of army life and encampments, explanations of logistics and tactics, descriptions of soldiers and citizens, and deeds of honor and infamy. There are profiles of people, regiments, and ships; songs and poems; and serious treatments of particular aspects of the war such as musketry and infantry. Basic concepts of warfare of the time are explained, including the disastrous effects of combining rifled weaponry with Napoleonic tactics, the hierarchy within the armies, and the part played by technological advances in communications and transportation. Camp recipes are discussed, women soldiers are profiled, military medicine is assessed, and an invaluable bibliography and resource guide is appended.
