Reviewed by Molly Edwards for Readers' Favorite

I honestly don't usually review non-fiction books. However, something called me to review this one, and quite frankly, I really enjoyed this book. It was surprisingly a really great book written by an author who knows what he was researching.

I liked it because it is a true and informative account of a confederate soldier who braved the battle and went across the Mason Dixon line to take control. Reading the scenes and what happened during the Civil War was an awe-inspiring event and really held my interest. I felt, if but for a time, that I was among those men and the raging battle of war. It is very vividly detailed.

This non-fiction book is an easy-to-read book and really can pull the reader in, almost like a really good fiction novel. It's richly detailed and well researched to the point, if you are like me, you'll love it whether you are a non-fiction reader or a fiction reader.

I do highly recommend, if you are a fan of history or the Civil War, or both, that you get your copy of this informative book today. It's a 4-star book in my opinion, and if all non-fiction books were like this, then I would love to read them all! Well done, Mr. Mulesky!
