With These Words, Shelby Foote begins a tremendous, sweeping narrative of the most fascinating conflict in our history -- a war which lasted four long, bitter years, an experience more profound and meaningful than any other the American people have ever lived through. This volume -- the first of three -- opens with Jefferson Davis' resignation from the United States Senate and Abraham Lincoln's departure from Springfield for the national capital; and these two leaders, whose lives continually touch on the great chain of events throughout the story, are only the first of scores of exciting personalities which in effect make The Civil War: A Narrative a multiple biography set against the crisis of an age. All the great battles are here, of course, from Bull Run through Shiloh, the Seven Days, Second Manassas to Antietam
