The Civil War in Books
Urbana, IL: University of Illinois, 1996. First. Hard Cover. VG+ / The glare in the photo is a reflection of the Broadart protective sleeve. The jacket is in VG+ condition. Item #543
This book had a short life among Civil War book collectors. It could not compete with Tom Broadfoot's price guide. However, it has value. There are approximately 1,100 books reviewed with a short narrative on each. There are books found in Eicher that are not in Broadfoot. Gary Gallagher has written an excellent narrative on Civil War literature that is found in this book. I think Eicher should be used more like a Nevins with book information and not a price guide like Broadfoot.
