Own the Definitive History of The Civil War: Autographed Book by Shelby Foote

Rare book seller, FlatSigned  is now offering a very unique piece of civil war history, an exclusive hand-signed, heirloom quality, leather Easton Press collectors-edition of Shelby Foote’s three-volume history: The Civil War: A Narrative--the books made famous after Foote’s appearance in the PBS documentary The Civil War in 1990.

This impressive, three-volume, 2,968-page narrative history of the American Civil War, not only covers battles and troop movements from both sides, but also takes a look at the social background that started the war and led, in the end, to the South's defeat. 

Fort Sumter to Perryville (1958) covers the roots of the war to the Battle of Perryville. All the significant battles are here, as are the smaller, lesser known, yet equally important engagements on both land and sea.

Fredericksburg to Meridian (1963) is dominated by the almost continual confrontation of great armies. The starting point for this volume is the Battle of Fredericksburg, between General Robert E. Lee's Army and the Army commanded by Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside.

Red River to Appomattox (1974) brings to a close the story of the four years that altered America forever. The final volume opens with the beginning of the two final, major confrontations of the war: Grant versus Lee in Virginia, and Sherman pressing Johnston in North Georgia in 1864.
