Just in time for the 150th Anniversary, the Daily Beast has come up with this list of essential books about the war. There are no fiction titles here (that would be a separate list), and they may be missing a few essential ingredients, but it is an excellent starting point.

Thanks for sending this list on, my sister writes novels about the Civil War. I'll forward the list to her.

I love history books but wars aren't really my thing. Thanks for sharing the list though, my fiance's an American history nut and his birthday's not far away. Better put this one in the bookmarks folder!
Anyway, hope you are well and sorry for not calling by enough. I'm going to get the words 'must be a better blogger' tattooed on my forehead. Or maybe not...
Thanks Irene; appreciate your sharing.
Roisin: Don't give me ideas about the forehead, I could so use that too. I have recommended your blog to several folk lately, so hope your traffic has picked up. You deserve it!
