Lots of interesting tidbits about the Confederacy, some of the major players like Davis, Beauregard, Jackson, etc. but also a view from the firing line as Johnny Reb viewed the war and how he spent his time.
As usual, the "Idiot's Guide" is more than just a "quick and dirty" way to get to the bottom of matters: It gets to the "true skinny;" and in doing so, it then gets the story right without polemics, pseudo-patriotic groveling or obvious political slants. Here the reader will find a surprisingly economic, fact-rich, compact, and systematic rendition of American history told from the vantage point of the Confederacy.
This book not only dispels most of the myths surrounding The War for Southern Independence (Civil War is actually incorrect) but is also an entertaining read. I highly recommend that those who know nothing but the propaganda put out by the North after the War and what is being taught today as the "truth" is only the victor's side of the story.
