John C. Waugh is the same author who wrote Reelecting Lincoln: The Battle For The 1864 Presidency. I remember when that book came out it was discussed on the old Abraham Lincoln Online Friends of Lincoln Mailbag and got very good reviews.

That book doesn't compare to this one. He really puts flesh and bones on these people and their lives at West Point, The Mexican War, The Indian wars and of course, the Civil War.
