RE: POW Camps "Tragedy and Triumph"
Neither North (Elmira, Camp Delaware) nor South (Andersonville) could claim the high ground when it came to POW camps. I would recommend Portals to Hell: Military Prisons of the Civil War by Lonnie Speer while William B. Hesseltine has an older, but still valuable, book called Civil War Prisons.
