The Yale course that I mentioned earlier deals with Reconstruction in some depth. In fact, about a third of the course is solely concerned with that period.
A topic which I would like to read more about is the foreign policies of the two sides, and in particular, the attempts by the Confederacy to gain recognition of the big European powers (and the attempts by the Union to stop them). McPherson does cover that, but I don't recall seeing it discussed much in any of the other books I've read.
