Civil War Series-Chancellorsville

The book was exactly as advertisd. Excellent condition and arrived quicker than I expected. Very satisfied with this order.

The Western Struggle

CHANCELLORSVILLE continues the story of the five Brannon brothers, their sister and mother. Many twists and turns emerge in this volume: Titus and Polly's romance goes further, while Will and Mac continue fighting with the Confederate Army in Virginia and Maryland.Meanwhile, Cory, the wandering Brannon, heads for Vicksburg, Mississippi in search of his beloved Lucille. En route, he meets Pie Jones, who will become a good friend to Cory. Little does Cory know he and Pie, along with Lucille's uncle, Charles Thompson, will soon become instrumental in an endeavor to break the Union siege of Vicksburg. When Pie falls in love with Rachel, a serving girl in a Louisiana tavern, trouble soon follows.As are the three previous volumes in The Civil War Battle Series, Chancellorsville is well-researched, tautly written, and fast-paced. A highly recommended book for any fan of historical fiction or Civil War buff.

Chancellorsville by James Reasoner

Fourth in the series by James Reasoner. The Brannon sons continue their adventures during the civil war. A quick, lite,enjoyable read yet very superficial with regard to historical details. You could read this book in a single sitting if you were so inclined.

Best one so far!

This series is very enjoyable. Chancellorsville is the best one so far. I'm looking forward to the next one.

AWESOME!!

This book is WONDERFUL! I've read all of them in the Civil War Battle Series and each one gets better, if that is possible. I only wish Mr. Reasoner could write faster and get them published quicker; it's gonna be hard to wait for #5 (Vicksburg) to come out in Spring 2001. His style of writing puts one right in the action, you feel as if you are in the middle of the battles. His facts are accurate and putting the Brannon family into the midst of the Civil War just makes the reading that much better. I would recommend these books to anyone who is interested in Civil War history. Keep them coming!!!
