"The Black Flower" is NOT for those who are looking for a Civil War read similar to "Killer Angels". This book delves more into the thoughts and emotions of soldiers before, during and after the battle of Franklin Tennessee. The characters are very well developed, the writing superb such that the reader can not help but get emotionally attached.
