Review # 1 was written on 2016-10-31 00:00:00 Lisa Carver It only took this book 20 years to move from my TBR pile to this. This whole series has been wonderful. I can see now that it is probably continued somewhat in Churchill's books about the WWI and WWII. What a man Churchill was. What a way with words and thoughts. Highly readable and continually thought-provoking. In this volume, there is quite a bit of American history especially Civil War battle history. You can see that Churchill was also in danger of 'loving war too much' as he remarks about Lee and Jackson. His perspective as an outsider makes this all the more thoughtful. I especially enjoyed hearing about the battles surrounding my town, Chattanooga.
