When Did It Happen in the Civil War? Carole Marsh

This book on WHEN the Civil War took place completely (and thankfully!) disregards the boring monotone of a strict chronology (YAWN!) and tackles the question of WHEN; through a clever ongoing monologue via GPS, telegram, bullhorn, text messages, cell phone calls, and other of the era; as well as anachronistic communication tools. Yes, WHEN can be a page-a-day kind of thing, or the horror of an endless battle, or the split second between the bullet and the body.
