What about McPherson?

I have his book (haven't started it yet). Is he honest and objective in his writing, or does he write to villify/justify a side?

[Non-Sequitur]

Ooooh, don't get them started on McPherson!

Just go ahead and read it. Remembering that he has a further agenda. It'll become manifest. The "historiopolemicist's" art isn't in disguising his purpose, but just in making history his servant in furthering it.

But go ahead and read, and form your own opinion.
