3169. The Life and Letters of Walter H. Page, by Burton J. Hendrick (read Mar 7, 1999) This won the 1922 Pulitzer for biography, and I have long wanted to read it and when I found it at a local college library, I could not resist reading it. Page was ambassador to England from 1913 to 1918, and died shortly after resigning as such. This is not a well-written book, and is mainly made up of Page's letters from 1913 to 1918. He was hot for US helping the Allies, and did all he could to get us into the War. I'm not sure this was worth reading, but it is the 41st Pulitzer prize winner for biography I've read.… (altro)

Excellent book on the civil government and foreign relations of the Confederacy. Author occassionally lets his pro-Confederate viewpoint slip into the narrative, but for the factual information it's priceless in discussing the governmental history of the Confederacy and in tracing the reasons for its inevitable collapse.
