I haven’t personally read the Hess book, but Drew Wagenhoffer posted a good review of it Thursday over on his blog if you haven’t already seen it.

I really enjoyed the following:

Headquarters in the Brush, Darl L. Stephenson
Trench Warfare under Grant & Lee, Earl J. Hess

I see a couple of medical books on your list. You might want to take a look at “Bleeding Blue & Gray: Civil War Surgery & the Evolution of American Medicine,” by Ira Rutkow. The first chapter deals with Bull Run.

Have read a few in the list. The Brinton memoir stands out as one of the better I have read over the years. Marvel’s book on Andersonville is hands down the most depressing book on the Civil War I have ever read. I have yet to read any other history of a prison during the war since I finished that one.

Hope all is well.

An interesting collection of topics but I have none of these as of yet in my library. Being a helpless book collector with no self-control what so ever, I’d be more than willing to read any you have particular interest in discussing and “let fly.”
