Yes, Sword can make you feel and see the battle. I also thought he masterfully described the forlorn retreat of the Army of Tennessee beaten and battered (and many barefoot) after Nashville. One can just feel the melancholy and despair.

That is an incredible book. Someone who posts here once in awhile has expressed at different times that he believes Sword to be unfair to John Bell Hood.
