Crucible of the Civil War: Virginia from Secession to Commemoration Hardcover - 2006

by Edward L. Ayers (Editor); Gary W. Gallagher (Editor); Andrew J. Torget (Editor)


From the publisher

Crucible of the Civil War offers an illuminating portrait of the state's wartime economic, political, and social institutions. Weighing in on contentious issues within established scholarship while also breaking ground in areas long neglected by scholars, the contributors examine such concerns as the war's effect on slavery in the state, the wartime intersection of race and religion, and the development of Confederate social networks. They also shed light on topics long disputed by historians, such as Virginia's decision to secede from the Union, the development of Confederate nationalism, and how Virginians chose to remember the war after its close.
