Synopsis
Nelson Lankford draws upon Civil War-era diaries, letters, memoirs, and newspaper reports to vividly recapture the experiences of the men and women, both black and white, who witnessed the tumultuous fall of Richmond. In April 1865 General Robert E. Lee realized that his army must retreat from the Confederate capital and that Jefferson Davis's government must flee. As the Southern soldiers moved out they set the city on fire, leaving a blazing ruin to greet the entering Union troops. The city's fall ushered in the birth of the modern United States. Lankford's exploration of this pivotal event is at once an authoritative work of history and a stunning piece of dramatic prose.

    As of the time of this review in 2025, I ordered and received a 2003 Lexus Owners Manual with leather jacket in pristine condition (even better than described :-), at a reasonable and competitive price, in a timely manner and well packaged. In addition, despite errors on my end, as buyer, I received prompt, friendly, professional and timely customer service from the seller, rectifying my error without complaint or taking advantage of me! 10 out of 10 stars!

    Got the parts and finally got around to installing them today. One of them is broken out of the box and they are not exactly the correct color but I thought they were the correct color when i ordered they were described as grey but not. I have included 2 pictures to show color difference and the broken part, with this part broken it will not stay in place. The original is on the right in both pictures. Parts arrived quickly and packaged well. I just delayed opening the box and installing.
