The Civil War tore the nation apart, pitting brother against brother. Marking the sesquicentennial of this epic struggle for America's soul, which began in 1861, "For Us the Living" features stunning paintings by acclaimed Civil War artist Mort Kunstler paired with stirring text by Pulitzer Prize - nominated author James I. Robertson Jr. No other Civil War book equals this breathtaking volume, which brings the crisis to life through eyewitness accounts and dramatic art. Robertson insightfully describes key events in each year of the conflict, weaving his words together with those of the people who lived through it; Kunstler's masterful paintings illuminate it all.
