This arguing could have been avoided if I had just named the topic "Book recommendations dealing with the conflict between the political, military, social, and economic entities variously described as 'The Union', 'The North', 'The Yanks (or Yankees)'; and 'The Confederacy', 'The South', 'The Rebels', or 'The Confederate States'; from which both entities form(ed) collectively 'The United States of America' prior to and succeeding said conflict?"
Anyway, I finished McPherson's Battle Cry of Freedom, and I am currently continuing to learn more about this war by reading the highly recommended The Civil War by Shelby Foote and Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith.
