Acclaimed as the greatest novel ever written about the War Between the States, this huge Pulitzer Prize book captures all the glory and shame of America's most tragic conflict in the vivid, crowded world of an infamous prison, Andersonville, and the people who lived outside its barricades. "The best Civil War novel I have ever read, without any question." - Bruce Catton, Pulitzer Prize Historian, Chicago Tribune
