Divya –
A bit dry at times, but ultimately a rewarding read. The stories of the soldiers are compelling, and Higginson’s dedication is admirable.
Chetan Garg –
Powerful and moving! Higginson’s dedication shines through. Some passages were hard to read due to the realities of war, but important.
Bharat Gupta –
A must-read for Civil War buffs! Gripping narrative and insightful commentary. It gave me a new appreciation of the war from a different angle.
Vishal Agarwal –
I had mixed feelings. The subject matter is important, but I found the prose dense. Still, valuable historical document.
Md Manjar Ejaz –
Higginson’s book provides a valuable first-hand account. While the writing is sometimes uneven, the historical significance is undeniable.
Dhruv Chandra –
Incredibly detailed account of the st South Carolina Volunteers. Higginson’s leadership is inspiring, though some of his views are questionable.
Gopalakrishnan T H –
A fascinating glimpse into the Civil War. Thomas Wentworth Higginson’s perspective is unique and insightful. Though sometimes slow, it’s worth reading.
Jinendra –
An okay read. I appreciated the historical context, but the writing style felt a bit dated. Not bad, but not amazing either.
