Storm Over the Land: A Profile of the Civil War

This book contains Carl Sandburg's story of the Civil War years in the United States of America, taken mainly from the four volumes of Abraham Lincoln: The War Years. Mr. Sandburg rewrote some sections to form this single volume, covering campaigns and generals, the common soldier in struggle, laughter and daring, politics behind battle lines, clashes of loyalists and malcontents, dark hours on the home front, and unbreakable faiths in high and low places.
