bloodiest conflict from the point of view of the people it freed. Larry talks with Ward about his book, "The Slaves' War," which was drawn from interviews, diaries, letters, and memoirs. It uncovers slaves' theories about the causes of the war, their thoughts about Lincoln, Davis, Lee, and Grant; and their memories of the carnage of battle. Guest: Andrew Ward, author of The Slaves War: The Civil War in the Words of Former Slaves
