In this series of essays McPherson reflects on such major topics as the origins of the Civil War, the war and American society, why the North won the war, Lincoln's enduring image, and the question of historians and their audiences (or, as McPherson phrases it, "What is the Matter with History?").

This series of essays reveal McPherson''s profound knowedge of the Civil War and of the controversies among historians that have existed about aspects of it. He is eminently fair in stating the opposing arguments in each of these controversies, but his own measured opinions are always clearly stated and are invariably persuasive.
