[Genealib] Confederate Regimental History Series

[Susan Scouras]

Some of the volumes contain rosters, which is useful for genealogy, but
those rosters are probably available from other sources.

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

	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.
	 
	Susan

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