Tried By War:Abraham Lincoln as Commander in Chief was a very interesting book and a good read. It was not written to be a general overview of the war but it still does a decent job of it.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."
