". . . one of the most extraordinary Civil War books that I have read this year. It is really a remarkable production . . . ."

-Gerry Prokopowicz, Host of Civil War Talk Radio

"This beautifully produced, meticulously researched book brings back to vivid life the violent world of some 3,000 of Green-Wood Cemetery's most honored dead. Final Camping Ground is an important contribution to American history as well as a labor of love."
