"The Seven-Day Scholar: the Civil War: Exploring History One Week at a Time", by Dennis Gaffney was an intriguing concept. In this book, the Civil War is covered in 52 weeks, each week composed of 7 days. Each week covers a specific topic, from certain battles, to people, to events to subjects like slavery or women in the war, with each of the days being a different article. Though the subjects are not covered in great depth, there is a wide breadth of topics covered, leading to the reader being the recipient of a great deal of information. Though normally I am not a proponent of "quantity over quality", in this case there is a great deal of both quantity and quality. I would recommend this book experienced civil war historians and laymen looking to gain an greater understanding of the conflict. It will have a proud place on my history shelf. In addition, there is also a passable bibliography, with links to where to find further information on each of the topics. In short, this was a highly engaging and very interesting learning experience. I look forward to the next book in the "Seven-Day Scholar" series.

Authoritative American history meets a fun listening experience in the first volume of The Seven-Day Scholar series, which chronicles significant moments in our nation's heroic tragedy. This audiobook is divided into 52 tracks that cover fascinating episodes of the Civil War. Each of these short entries, which read like historical fiction, covers crucial political decisions, unforgettable people, key battlefield moments, scholarly debates, what-ifs of the war, and struggles on the home front. Listeners can sweep through the book from beginning to end or scroll week by week, becoming a "scholar" in each topic in just a few day's time. The Seven-Day Scholar also serves as a reference book, inviting listeners to dip in and out of topics they want to explore whenever they want. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
