Book Review : Bruce L . Brager ’ s Grant ’ s Victory
mac ’ s morale has been analyzed countless times . An avid reader of the Civil War will find little new here .
The book contains fourteen pages of notes and an extensive bibliography of prominent Civil War literature . Further , Brager actually walked / drove the ground , and his intimate portrayal of where the fighting took place is a welcome part of this work . While it does take some time to note Brager ’ s purpose , it becomes obvious as the book progresses . Grant ’ s Victory : How Ulysses S . Grant Won the Civil War is a good addition to Civil War history , especially for a synopsis of the key battles of the war ’ s Eastern Theater .
