The Last Full Measure--#6 finished

This is the last in the 3 book series started by the author's father about the Civil War with a focus on some of the people--mainly generals involved.  This is about the end of the war, pretty much from when Grant gets appointed in charge of the union forces.  The focus is on Grant, Lee & Chamberlain--a college professor that moved up the officer ranks to become a general--he was also focused in the earlier books too.  A really interesting and good read, I enjoyed the whole series.  It is hard to even imagine the whole Civil War even with all the problems & divisiveness in our country right now, I can't imagine whole states of people taking up arms against other states.  I have ordered other books from author about the Civil War in the west and hope to get to them later this year.

This series is on my keeper list.
