About

The American Civil War Synopsis

This revised and updated guide to the US Civil War offers an intimate account of America's bloodiest and most divisive conflict - 160 years on.

This comprehensive, visually arresting guide explores the history, causes, and consequences of the US Civil War with eyewitness accounts by soldiers and civilians, key profiles of military leaders, and clear timelines that give an overview of how the events developed.

Fully revised and updated, and produced in association with the Smithsonian Institute, The American Civil War is packed with information on key locations, the treatment of wounded soldiers, and slavery, and provides a rich and detailed account of one of the most controversial conflicts ever fought.

Illustrated throughout with photography and paintings, it features detailed galleries showcasing weapons, equipment, and other artefacts, and also comes with informative and photographic features on memorial sites associated with the Civil War.
