Libro Prima edizione
Hard Cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Printing. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 1st Printing. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall. 224pp, 17 illustrations, hb. This fascinating study examines what happened to the Union and Confederate armies when peace broke out in 1865. William B. Holberton has based his extraordinarily detailed study on countless eyewitness accounts and brings this unique and dramatic period of American history to life. Beginning with the surrender of the Appomattox Courthouse, the author lucidly takes the reader through all aspects and phases of demobilization, including the Grand Review of the victorious Union Army in Washington, the desertion of soldiers too impatient to return home, the difference between demobilization in the South and that in the North, joyful homecomings, the diverse experiences of men travelling home across a continent and the deferred return of prisoners of war.
