Shrouds of Glory by Winston Groom

If you are looking for an interesting and riveting book that will hold your attention from the first page to the last, this is it. It tells the tale of Confederate General John Bell Hood and the Army of Tennessee as they moved North after the Battle of Atlanta to outskirts of Nashville that ended the South's last great offensive. Groom tells the tale with energy and excitement that turns this mixture of eyewitness accounts, journal entries, and military documents into a barn burner you won't want to put down. This book gets my whole hearted recommendation.
