I have this trilogy, but have yet to dig into them. It's Catton, so similar to Foote, I know it will be a very thoroughly enjoyable read. Interested to know your thoughts when you finish.

I thought it was a very engaging read. It didnt feel like a history book. And yes, similar to Foote. I was pleasantly surprised to see how visceral the combat was written. I also appreciated Catton's take on McClellan, interesting and thought provoking.
