Title

My Diary North and South, Volume 2

Description

A first-hand account of the politics, civilian day-to-day life, and military strength and weakness of both the North and South during the Civil War. While the foreign author and war correspondent from the London Times tries to make sense and reason for why the American colonists are going to war against each other. The book is in really great condition besides the spine damage and smoke damage on the back page from the 2011 fire in the St. Elmo historic home.
