reeahe1617's book review was featured in Undying Glory The Story of the Massachusetts 54th Regiment.
All in all, Undying Glory by Clinton Cox is a very good book. My rating is a solid 9/10, and here’s why. Undying Glory tells the story the Massachusetts 54th Regiment, the first troop of African American soldiers. First thing’s first, this book tells the story of the 54th perfectly. Being a nonfiction story told by Clinton long after the events happened, the wording makes it seem like the story is told from the point of view of an immediate bystander. Emotion is used perfectly and captures the devastating nature of war. When a character (Whom I will not name because it would spoil the book) dies in the war, it is horrifying because Clinton got the reader so connected with the character. Why was it a nine out of ten instead of a ten? Although being a very powerful story, the story is a little bit hard to follow. Due to the very advanced language of the book, some plot details seem a little bit confusing. I recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a factual, intense, and powerful story of war. I do not recommend this book for anyone younger than 9, or the faint of heart.Over 7 years agoreeahe1617 added a book review.

I would recommend this to someone who likes action and a bit of romance almost and adventure. It got really good around page 90 or so. The book ended with a big cliffhanger which didn’t make me super impressed with the ending.Over 7 years agokergre1617 has read this book.
