Product Description
The War Between the States was the most traumatic event in American History. Had its outcome been different, the entire course of our nation's domestic and international life would have been radically altered.
It is not surprising that such an event would become a major theme for books, magazines, songs, and, later, motion pictures. We believe that this volume is the largest and most comprehensive collection of Civil War fiction ever published, a book that combines the works of such titans of American literature as Herman Melville, Mark Twain, F. Scott FitzgP. Marquand, William Faulkner, Thomas Wolfe, and O'Henry as well as stars of "slick" magazines such as Collier's and The Saturday Evening Post - men like John P. Marquand, Stephen Vincent Benet, James Warner Bellah, and the tragic Rober Edmond Alter, who died of cancer at the age of forty at the height of his powers but before he could break out of the magazines and establish the national reputation he deserved
