Claudia Moore, W.T. Woodson High School, Fairfax, VA

Denney's valuable addition to Civil War collections chronicles that conflict's POW experience. It draws upon an extensive variety of primary sources and covers both captors and captives as well as escapes, rescues, and (in far too many cases) suffering and death. Denney provides just enough background to orient the less sophisticated Civil War buff and for the most part lets the narrators he assembles speak for themselves. They do so eloquently, eliciting the conclusion that much of the POW experience is universal; also that, on either side, there was less brutality than there was a shortage of supplies, a lack of foresight, and gross negligence.
