Clapinski02 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 "Confederates in the Attic..." by Tony Horwitz and "Look Away! A History of the Confederate States of America" by William C. Davis are two very well written books. I enjoyed them a lot. I've only read part of "Legacy of the Civil War" by RPWarren, but the parts I read seemed to be very interesting.

g8trz2003 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 my Dad has read "The Real Lincoln". I've read Southern By The Grace Of God by Grissom....amazing book. This guy who owns a store (Dixie Outpost)..I've become friends with him, and he is good friends with Grissom. Grissom is a very intelligent man (from what I've read), as is his friend. I've also read Down Home Grizzard. Hilarious...wish he was still alive. A book I'm reading now is called "When In the Course of Events". Awesome so far.

Das Texan Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 I am a bit surprised that none of Wyatt-Brown's books on honor are on that list. Southern Honor and his more recent lesser known companion to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
