"Triangle Histories" introduce a new concept to American history series. Each title in the 2-vol. collection interweaves and overlaps with others in its own unique way. And each title provides a different perspective on the subject. For example, The Battle of Vicksburg, the biography Ulysses S. Grant, and the biography Abraham Lincoln, overlap and intersect at a number of points. Grant was the Union commander at Vicksburg at a time when Lincoln was under great pressure to replace the general. Because the "Triangle Histories" provide a format in which major subjects and themes can be considered from various angles, each collection offers a truly unique way to learn and understand the topic more completely. Each book stands alone, but as a set, the Civil War collection forms a powerful and engaging way in which to learn about one of the most painful eras our nation has ever endured.Chris Hughes is the author of 'The Triangle Histories of the Civil War: Presidents - Andrew Johnson', published 2001 under ISBN 9781567115345 and ISBN 1567115349.
