This Hallowed Ground
by Bruce Catton

View in Library Catalog



Bruce Catton's trilogy about the Army of the Potomac (Mr. Lincoln's Army, Glory Road, This Hallowed Ground) was a magnificent undertaking. The third volume won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize, but the awards were for the series. Catton's research was impressive, his writing was superb, and his ability to blend individual stories within a coherent general account is unsurpassed. The last year of the Civil War turned hard and ugly even compared to the first three years. The Battle of the Wilderness, stunningly portrayed, followed a doomed cavalry raid on Richmond, and set the tone for the year to come. It wouldn't be until Appomattox that a touch of grace appeared. Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan propelled the Union effort, and their characters are well described.

The Murder Of Roger Ackroyd
by Agatha Christie

Probably my favorite Poirot mystery of any I have read, which has been quite a few of them. It has probably the biggest end result and plot twist out of any of them, you never have a clue of who the murderer really is, and when you keep thinking you know who it is, your thoughts get kicked out of your head two pages later. It has the biggest surprise ending, a great plot, great character set up and story, and is a must read for any mystery lover.

A great way for Hercule Poirot and his friend Hastings to be introduced, although it was not my first Poirot book by Agatha Christie. Always kept you thinking of what was going to happen or come forward, right up until the last paragraph, literally.
