Also, check out the author and what others have said about the book before you (reviewers who you trust). There are some books which have been nominated by the same author however, skip over those if the particular author does not suit you and vote for your favorite or for one you or others might want to read.īefore making your selection, please try to look up your choice and make sure it really is a book you are interested in or you think others would be do not be lured in by the title. You can always change your vote at any time so nothing is lost. If you do not see your favorite book about the American Civil War on this list then just comment or pop me a note and I will immediately add it to this poll. Vote as soon as possible because the first book will be launched in February. Bryan Craig will be the Assisting Moderator leading this book discussion.Ĭhoose and vote for one book. The book which garners the most votes and comes out on top will be discussed beginning in February 2012. So take your time and make sure to vote because if a book does not get at least one vote it will be relegated to the bottom of the list. We wanted to make sure that we included 'all of them'. Just as an FYI: this poll took me forever to put together because there were so many group member suggestions and recommendations. Killer Angels was already completed by the group so that book was not added to the list for voting purposes. Therefore we are now voting for the first Military Series selection from books which were all nominated by group members. Therefore, the first Military Series discussion will focus on the American Civil War. The American Civil War received the most votes from the group membership. The reason that we did this was because we are launching a Military Series of book discussions similar to how we conduct the Presidential Series at the HBC.

Recently, the History Book Club conducted a Military Series Poll. American Civil War - Military Series Selection
