Review of 'Three months in the Southern states' on 'Goodreads'

This slice of first person history is lucid and gripping. I found that Lt Col Fremantle's narrative brought me into the reality of the Civil War as no other book of non-fiction on the war has to date for me. It brings the human condition across the Southern states into clear focus.
