"Why My Face to the Enemy is one of the most wide-ranging anthologies on the subject to come along in years, and a collection everyone interested in American history will want to read. Its thirty-six essays examine the war from the perspectives critical to its outcome - the larger-than-life personalities of the important players from Lincoln to Lee and the national strategies and key battle tactics that shaped the four-year-long crisis."--BOOK JACKET.
