..."an excellent reference work that does a good job of explaining the causes of the war, as well as capturing some of its drama. The book is intended for a middle school and high school audience, but would also be of interest to adult readers interested in history...well illustrated...sturdy and well made from high-quality materials...will be an excellent choice for anyone wanting to learn more about this important American conflict."
