Much interesting detail but flawed with too much on events west of Mississippi, bad Stonewall bios and excessive coverage of film and TV. Most offensive was comment about Grant as one of our worst presidents- Grant's "presidency " was one of the worst because Grant trusted people to a fault but the man Grant was way ahead of history on civil rights and humane treatment of the Indian tribes. The more I have read about Grant the more I am convinced he has been underrated as a critical contributor to the success in bringing the war to an end as well reconstruction.
A lot of good information, and insight. I liked the info on Jefferson Davis, and his relationships with his generals. I especially liked the insight on Joseph E. Johnston, its a no holds barred beat down. I have only seen historians\authors destroy McClellan in the same way, but again great insight. As indicated in the title, the book gets to the core of some of the issues, of the Confederacy. I also love how it handles the myths of how the Confederacy could have won, by showing the potential Union reaction.Now for the bad. It get way too bogged down with the Trans-Mississippi Theater. It has typical General Lee hero worship. After seeing how bad his peers were, maybe it is deserved, but after just reading another book that contained a valid, and very critical military analysis of General Lee, it just seems out of place in a myth\reality book. Part 4 of this book, which is about Stonewall Jackson is just a mess. it hints at some insights, but never revels anything, and leaves you hanging. It does not even mention the controversy of how Jackson got his nickname. For those that don't know it is believed to have been an insult, because Jackson stood like a stonewall, instead of moving up, and helping another brigade which was being slaughtered. Again Jackson's lack of initiative, and tendency to blindly follow orders is hinted at, but again no new insight. Then it goes off on a tangent about the historical accuracy of Civil war movies, and ends up in left field.
The book provides a lot of information on the politics in the Confederacy during and, to some extent, after the Civil War. The relationship between Jefferson Davis and this generals was interesting. The book ends with a review of movies and TV show made about the war. Some of the myth busting seems to be based on the authors own authority, but much of it is documented.
Very factual but about 2.5. Times longer than needed.Too much repition. Not what I expected.
Enjoyed the second half of this book.Thought it had a slow start with some repetition. Once involved with specific arguments(states’rights) and individual characters,the pace picks up.The Hollywood reaction chapter is a winner!
Very interesting. Is it the first book about the truth? Why are the masses mislead by politicians and journalists caught for suckers even when families war amongst itself.
Any serious reader of Civil War history cannot claim to be unless he or she has read William C. Davis, and this book continues on par with his previous endeavors. The Cause Lost is not heavily researched, and it need not be. Instead, the books contains, what I would call, several essays dealing with all the ponders and “what ifs†of any seasoned Civil War buff.I once heard a “myth†that Davis only writes one draft, then submits to publication. (I put myth in quotations as a not so subtle nod to a chapter in this book). True or not, it remains to me believable, for his research and narrative come through with a simple brilliance and sound logic that would seem as if he is dissecting all the complexities of this complex war to any casual listener, and they walk away getting it.
