The Demon of Unrest was incredible

my favorite writing about the civil war i’ve ever read — but (understandably!) bleak stuff

not true crime per se, but more a deep dive into what every single person was thinking, and the confusion many leaders were feeling, in this beginning period of the civil war

Have read a lot about the ACW, but not much specifically about Sumter. Larson’s books are narrative driven and often have a true crime angle. That the case here? What was going on at Sumter during the bombardment??

you just casted a couple hours ago that you were picking up this book. How’d you finish it already? 

Larson covers and titles always call to me. I have yet to read one.

never read any of his books before, i'll have to now

Nice! Loved Larsen’s vivid style in DWC.

Splendid and the Vile is phenomenal - must read if you liked this

This will definitely be in my next library haul. Have you read Team of Rivals? Highly recommend if not!
