Description: This lot consists of twelve hardcover books about the American Civil War (1861-1865). Most of them are first editions, sent out by the publishers in the early 1960s as review copies. I believe all are non-fiction except #12. You get: 1. "This Hallowed Ground," Bruce Catton, 1956, 437 pages, Doubleday, later printing, very good in good jacket. 2. "The Coming Fury," Bruce Catton, 1961, 565 pages, Doubleday, stated first edition, good condition with bumped top corners.3. "Terrible Swift Sword," Bruce Catton, 1963, 559 pages, Doubleday, very good4. "Crucial Moments of the Civil War," Willard Webb, 1961, 356 pages, Fountainhead, stated first printing, very good5. "The War in the West," Oscar Lewis, 1961, 263 pages, Doubleday, stated first edition, very good6. "Who Fired the First Shot?," Ashley Halsey, Jr., 1963, 223 pages, Hawthorn Books, stated first edition, very good7. "Appomattox: The Last Campaign," Burleigh Cushing Rodick, 1965, 220 pages, Philosophical Library, very good8. "The Edge of Glory: A Biography of General William S. Rosecrans," William M. Lamers, 1961, 499 pages, Harcourt, Brace & World, stated first edition, very good9. "Sheridan in the Shenandoah," Edward J. Stackpole, 1961, 413 pages, The Stackpole Company, stated first edition, very good10. "Confederate Agent," James D. Horan, 1954, 326 pages, Crown, very good11. "Chickamauga," Glenn Tucker, 1961, 448 pages, Bobbs-Merrill, stated first edition, very good12. "By Antietam Creek," Don Robertson, 1960, 268 pages, Prentice-Hall, very good In general the books from the early 1960s, sent as review copies, appear to be unread, but the dust jackets may have one or more of these various flaws: sunned spine, small tears, rubbing, light soiling. "Appomattox" has a small handwritten note stating the publication date on the third page - the other books are unmarked.
