First editions of each volume. Three volumes. Octavo, original black cloth. Volume 1 is signed by Freeman on the front free endpaper. Each volume is near fine in very good dust jackets. A very nice set.
"One of the epic works on the Confederate armies, these exhaustively researched and brilliantly written volumes deserve to be read by all Civil War students. Freeman employs an amazing quantity of information, much of it gleaned from Confederate sources in Richmond, and he is an interesting and intelligent writer, offering insights into a multiplicity of actions and personalities. The three hefty volumes cover the period following Sumter to the end of the Peninsular campaign, Second Bull Run to Chancellorsville, and the Gettysburg campaign to war’s end" (Eicher 971).
