This book would make an excellent gift to a history fanatic or someone needing to research lifestyles from periods during the Civil War.From what I can tell (recalling lessons from grade school and college) the book is most definitely accurate and tales about life back then certainly serve as entertainment.As a twenty something year old reader, it does bring up question as to how the heck they kept going having so many limited resources. Seems technological advances combined with our society's lack of creative would make current day citizens in awe of life during the Civil War.
