Although I'm only 27, I've managed to amass a pretty decent Civil War library for myself. This list keeps growing every month. Below you will find a list of every Civil War related book I own, and a brief description of what I thought of it along with the number of pages and maybe the number of maps. Feel free to e-mail me at acwbooks@brettschulte.net if you have read any of the below books and want to comment on them. I'll be glad to post your comments on this page.

The War in the East:

The war in the East is extremely well-covered. In fact, until recently, everything except 1863 after Gettysburg and 1864-1865 was covered pretty completely. Now authors such as Noah Andre Trudeau and especially Gordon Rhea have rectified even that lack of coverage. Trudeau has already produced a set of books covering the Wilderness through Petersburg, and Gordon Rhea now has four books in his 1864 series covering the Wilderness to Cold Harbor. I hear he has plans for a fifth which would cover some part of the Petersburg Campaign which would come out around 2007 or 2008.
