Amazing Research - BCF

The beginning of Battle Cry gives such a comprehensive overview of precivil war conditions! I am going to stop using my history book and use this information. I am amazed at the details and research that McPherson offers. So many different things contributed. I am beginning to feel qualified as a history teacher!

    I totally agree with you Bobbie. Some of the information was overwhelming but overall very good to use instead of our text books! I was amazed at the numbers of casualties and wounded throughout the war. It was hard to comprehend at times, but it was still fascinating information.

    Bobbie,
    I had the same thought as I was reading this portion. What a comprehensive overview of antebellum Americia. Very descriptive and does a great job of hitting the right amount of detail without getting too bogged down.
