Five Forks: Waterloo Of The Confederacy by Robert Alexander, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Five Forks is a splendid and intriguing study of the South's Waterloo. The Battle of Five Forks was one of the the last battles of the American Civil War. A week later, Lee surrendered. Two weeks later, Lincoln was dead. In this meditation on that battle, Alexander juxtaposes the story of the battle, which he tells through narrative, letters, and journal entries, with his own impressions, viewing the South through Northern eyes. In addition, he views contemporary American society through the story of the Civil War and specifically through the story of FiveForks. | Five Forks: Waterloo Of The Confederacy by Robert Alexander, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
