On Sunday, December 7, 1862, two armies collided at an obscure Arkansas hamlet named Prairie Grove in a desperate battle that effectively ended Confederate offensive operations west of the Mississippi River. In Fields of Blood, historian William L. Shea offers a gripping narrative of the events surrounding Prairie Grove, one of the great unsung battles of the Civil War.

Better book than audio version
Revisado: 01-15-10
Anyone considering the purchase of this audiobook should listen to the exerpt provided. I did not, but wish I had.I found the narrator's bland style to be intolerable. Even worse, since I listen as I drive, I was afraid I might be lulled to sleep as I listened.The emotionless delivery style was bad enough, but the quotations delivered in cartoon-like versions of southern accents were inaccurate and distracting. I ultimately bought the Kindle version of this book and listened to it using text to speech. The robotic voice in text to speech was much more animated than Mr. Fisher's reading and I was spared the phoney southern accents. I recommend the book, which is well written and tells the fascinating details of a period of the Civil War of which I was unaware, even though I grew up in that part of Arkansas.
