This is a DK Eyewitness book, written by John Stanchak. Learn about the war that turned friend against friend, man against man and humanity tearing itself apart. The book mentions what the Civil War was, how it started, how the Union and the Confederates armed their troops, what supplies they had, and how this war ended. This is an eyewitness book, meaning it has pictures of artifacts from the Civil War, including some of the weapons and flags that survived the war and photos of people around that time.
Likes: I like this book because it is very informative and interesting. It also has detail photos of weapons an gears of the soldiers. This book bears a lot of information for kids who are either learning about the Civil War at school, or are generally interested in the topic. I found this particular book full of valuable information.
Recommendation: I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read about American History. I think kids 9 and up will love this book. Also, the topic might be sensitive to younger kids.
