Description
From the Pulitzer Prize winning author of Andersonville comes the story of an unforgettable moment in American history: the historic meeting between General Robert E. Lee and General Ulysses S. Grant that led to the surrender of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia--and ultimately to the end of the Civil War.
MacKinlay Kantor's book for young readers captures all the emotions and drama of those few days in April 1865: Lee's mingled sorrow and relief, Grant's generosity toward his late opponent and the nearly starving Confederate soldiers; and the two commanders' negotiation of surrender terms intended to help heal the wounds of more than four years of the most violent conflict in American history.

Easily 5 out of 5 stars. I love pretty much any books to do with The American Civil War and this was no exception. This was a well researched and easy to read book. I learned a few new things, reviewed a few things, and raised my brow at some others. A great, riveting read to anyone that enjoys history.
