1861:CIVIL WAR BEGINNINGS BY NICK VULICH,is a very short, fast read. Unlike your typical non fiction, Mr Vulich writes the book in a way where the reader feels like he's just sitting right there, in a comfortable chair, telling you about pre civil war stories.
I love the way he describes some of Mr.Lincoln's story telling, using the word "ribald" in places. You can almost hear the humor and laughter from Mr.Vulich
. The book is chocked full of history, a kinda behind the scenes stories. One, for example, is about Mr. Pinkerton,who in Baltimore is trying to get a handle on the assassination attempts of the President elect before Lincoln arrives .
I totally enjoyed the content and the way it was presented. It makes the experience of history more pleasurable when it comes in the style and writing of the author.
I recieved this e book free from goodreads in exchange for a review.
