Description: We Take Pride in our Secure Packaging DIVIDED AMERICA TUMBLES INTO A DEVASTATING CIVIL WAR THE NAME ERIK LARSON ON THE COVER is a guarantee that the book is a great read - a riveting true-life drama that is going to be hard to put down. Remarkably, this bestselling non-fiction writer chooses subjects that are familiar to many and then presents them with new details and with a freshness that is compelling - even if you have a fair idea of how the story will end. Larson's best seller about the rise of the Nazis in the 1930s illustrates this point. Countless books have been written about Hitler and his Nazi thugs but Larson's account - In the Garden of Beasts - gave new immediacy. It is the same with this book - the author takes us back to what we thought we knew and tells us so much we didn't know. THIS BOOK DEALS WITH A TRAGIC PERIOD in American history: bitter divisions moving the states steadily towards the conflict that would eventually kill 750,000 Americans. The author shows how the focus came to be on the federal fortress in Charleston Harbor - Fort Sumter. As with his earlier books, the author blends with great skill the stories of very different characters to create a big picture. This first edition is brand new, never read and we have protected the dust-jacket with a removable Brodart plastic cover to keep it in pristine condition. In addition to a general index, the author provides detailed source notes and a bibliography.
