I just finished reading the first volume of the three volume set. It was so interesting and so well written that it took less time than I thought, reading perhaps 20 to 30 pages a day. I have to admit that it was a bit intimidating at first as the books are larger than I expected and with very narrow margins. In other words, each page is crammed with lots of words. Fortunately, those words flow amazingly smoothly and the story line and narration are superb and gripping. I'm not a Civil War buff but love reading about history and, so far, this is one of the best books I've read on any historical subject. This fascinating tale woven by Mr. Foote is well researched, extremely well written and articulated and, surprisingly, well balanced, at least so far. If you have any interest in history, especially American history, then I highly recommend this three volume set. I can't wait to get started on the second volume!Product details

The Civil War A Narrative Vol 3 Red River to Appomattox (Audible Audio Edition) Shelby Foote Grover Gardner Inc Blackstone Audio Books Reviews
I learned so much from reading this series. Shelby Foote is a great story teller and does an excellent job of bring the civil war to life. There were so many instances when reading were I simply couldn't put it down. One of the most rewarding reads of my life.
Shelby Foote's amazing book describes in vivid detail of the accounts of the Civil War in 1862 onward. His descriptive style takes the reader back to the battlefields and leaders of each movement in amazing detail. You cannot put this series of books down, as they're engaging and riveting by all accounts. Well written and accurate in all accounts with intensity and passion that I have not read in many, many books. Very well done and this could be the definitive series that will not be superseded in 50 years.
Cheers!
I have always enjoyed shelby foote, my dad is a self-made expert on the civil war. Unfortunately, his memory is failing him for recollection. He has enjoyed the books so far, he has gotten through most of the first one and raves about it.
I can just imagine his reading it in Shelby Foote’s voice
i can think of no one more capable of writing such a masterpiece account of the entire civil war. foote is, was, may he r.i.p,, the most knowledgeable
person on the subject hands down!!! if youre seeking the truth about the war, this is a must own item to add to your library.
Each time I read the trilogy I came away with a greater appreciation of the literary genius of Shelby Foote. These volumes now “belong to the ages”, and the ages are grateful and much indebted.
Excellent, this work gives you the moment by moment story of the civil war. It is easy reading and explains the motivation of the historical characters mentioned in the story. I feel that I have been put back in time and that I am living the Civil War personally. . The Civil War A Narrative war is a must read for the serious student of American History.
It is extremely rare to find a book so compelling you can't wait to get back to it and I spite of knowing the ending the tears for all concerned won't stop flowing. Our Nation was forged in the terrible crucible of blood and tears. Shelby Foote has finished his masterpiece and my greatest hope is that we learn from it and not repeats it ever again. May He rest in Peace
