- Anything by James M. McPherson.
- Anything by Bruce Catton.
- A Fateful Lightning by Allen C. Guelzo.

Bias? Bias?
Suh, the good Southern boy of whom you refer, like so many other valiant oppressed Confederates, is simply trying to correct the lies, half-truths, innuendos, misconceptions, misstatements, prevarications, fictions, inaccuracies, calumnies, distortions, aspersions, falsities, deceptions, inventions, deceptions (oops, I said that already), slanders, subterfuges, fraudulences, vilifications, obloquies, and fibs foisted on a credulous Northern audience by the Yankee politicians and publishing houses since the end of the Confederate States of America's noble struggle for freedom and liberty in THE War.
