Synopsis:
A narrative history of the final weeks of the American Civil War, centered on April 1865—the month that brought Lee’s surrender, Lincoln’s push for reconciliation, and Lincoln’s assassination.

The book follows the intertwined actions and decisions of military leaders, politicians, and civilians as the Confederacy collapses, Richmond falls, and the nation faces the danger that the conflict could continue as a prolonged guerrilla war.

It argues that how the war ended—and how the peace was handled in those pivotal days—helped determine whether the United States would fracture permanently or re-emerge as a single nation.
