+100 for Michael Shaara's The Killer Angels. It's the best in the genre, IMO.

Check out also Gods and Generals, and The Last Full Measure, by Michael's son Jeff Shaara, also about the Civil War. They are great books in their own right. He definitely shares his father's talent.

“Jubilee” by Margaret Walker. A classic.

Paulette Jiles has written a few novels set around the civil war or shortly afterward. Her most well known book is "News of the World", which was made into a movie starring Tom Hanks. I have liked all of her books.
