"The narrow focus [of the book] brings out some points very sharply. Mr. Ferguson, a journalist and the author of 'Chancellorsville 1863', is not a historian who draws attention to his literary strategy, but it is clearly no accident that he devotes much space to those Richmonders who remained loyal to the Union. And one's overall impression is that his purpose is to show men and women paying a hideous price for the pleasures of self-deception."Furgurson, Ernest B. is the author of 'Ashes of Glory Richmond at War' with ISBN 9780679746607 and ISBN 0679746609.
