(Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, 2001-2005): Stackpole. First Editions. Thick Octavo. In five volumes, illustrated. Extensive bibliography and index. The author has assembled a wide variety of first- person accounts that are not generally available elsewhere, relying primarily on unpublished manuscript accounts, special military reports, and contemporaneous newspaper and magazine articles. Each account it meticulously documented to enhance its historical value. An incredible work. All volumes bound in either brown, green or blue cloth lettered in gilt, endpapers are maps, in pictorial dust jackets. An exceptionally fine bright set with no names, plates or wear.
