[Genealib] Confederate Regimental History Series

[Tracy Luscombe]

Thanks Susan. I'm considering them more for genealogy so maybe they
aren't the best choice.

Tracy:
 
Our in-house Civil War historian and author, Terry Lowry, says this set
is good and is considered one of the "classics" for Civil War history.
We have the original 12 hardbound volumes in our collection, but they
are not used heavily.  If you have true Civil War historians and buffs
who truly research the Civil War, you will probably want this set for
your library.  If you don't expect much use, the CD-ROM version would
probably be adequate.  There are used sets and individual volumes widely
available in the book market, from what I can see.  This set has been
reprinted several times over the years.
 
Hope this helps.

	Does anyone out there own these books?  If so, what is your
opinion of the work being worth the cost?
