Richmond Burning: The Last Days of the Confederate Capital(ISBN=9780142003107) txt umd azw3 下载 fb2 pdf 在线 免费

　　Nelson Lankford draws upon Civil War-era diaries, letters,

memoirs, and newspaper reports to vividly recapture the experiences

of the men and women, both black and white, who witnessed the

tumultuous fall of Richmond. In April 1865 General Robert E. Lee

realized that his army must retreat from the Confederate capital

and that Jefferson Davis's government must flee. As the Southern

soldiers moved out they set the city on fire, leaving a blazing

ruin to greet the entering Union troops. The city's fall ushered in

the birth of the modern United States. Lankford's exploration of

this pivotal event is at once an authoritative work of history and

a stunning piece of dramatic prose.
