It gives a better understanding of how Davis perceived eventsBy DavidI bought this book seeking to go a little more in depth in the day-to-day operation of the confederate war effort. It gives a better understanding of how Davis perceived events. Recommend it to anyone seeking to go beyond normal history books.4 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Do Not Buy This Edition of Vol II or Vol I -Print too small to read.By JesseThe print is too small to read; the ink is too light. I was so disappointed. I have never seen such a poorly designed book. There is no Vol. number on the cover; the book spine is blank so you could not read the title if the book were on your book shelf.The publisher did not use tiny print to save paper; there is plenty of wasted blank space at the bottom and top of each page. I cannot read this book and I hope the seller will take it back.
