Melissa (matilda314) My gift to my older brother each year is a new book on the Civil War. Usually it's pretty easy to find one online that seems to be a best choice, but this year, I really haven't seen anything highly recommended.

Can anyone recommend a 2017 Civil War book for a huge history buff? Thank you.

Jeff Ron Chernow's new bio of Grant seems to be a bestseller.
