Consider Battle Cry of Freedom by James M. McPherson. Recommended by 1 sources.

The useful payoff is a coherent timeline that helps you see cause-and-effect across campaigns, policy shifts, and public opinion. The main limitation is emphasis and compression: long battle sections can feel dense, and selective choices about which episodes receive space will frustrate readers who want exhaustive local detail or a heavily annotated, apparatus-driven history.”
