Civil War Musings and Reflections - Gene Schmiel - Bog

RE-FIGHTING THE CIVIL WAR!? FROM MY MUSINGS AND REFLECTIONS ABOUT THE CIVIL WAR TO YOURS! The debate about the causes, nature, results, and meaning of the Civil War goes on and on. This book is not written as part of that debate, nor is it an attempt to be a comprehensive look at every element of the war. Rather, through my thought-provoking musings and reflections, I hope to bring about reconsideration of certain elements of the war, not for the purpose of debate, but to have the reader, too, muse and reflect. Based on my half century of studying the war, the book contains a sampling of the blogs I have written over the last few years on my web-site, https: //civilwarhistory-geneschmiel.com . In them I have commented about a wide variety of topics, from major military decisions to Civil War pets and everything in-between. Each time I have attempted to elucidate a particular point or two and thereby to bring to the reader's attention aspects of the war which he might have not considered and to encourage him to ponder about them. The photos, maps, etc. which accompany each item are designed to reinforce that objective. If, after reading each item in this book, the reader says to himself, "that deserves further thought," then I will have achieved my objective. Enjoy!
