Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era was a National Bestseller. Wall Street Journal said: "A true landmark, surely the finest one-volume chronicle and analysis of the central event in the life of the nation." McPherson begins with the background for the Civil War in describing the United States in the mid-1800s and the political and social aspects leading to the war. He continues in a literary style of writing up to the end of the war. Book is footnoted and documented. Good index and bibliographic notes.
