Books and Libraries in Camp and Battle The Civil War Experience

'œDavid Kaser ... has given us a succinct and interesting account of what American soldiers read in the 1860s, how reading and publishing patterns affected what they read, and how the troops secured their reading material. Though he was relentless in his pursuit of published and unpublished data, Kaser does not feel compelled to tell everything in detail. He is a good storyteller who carefully orchestrates his material for the benefits of the reader. Yet we never doubt the thoroughness of his research. ... Read and enjoy.'' American LibrariesKaser, David is the author of 'Books and Libraries in Camp and Battle The Civil War Experience' with ISBN 9780313244834 and ISBN 0313244839.
