About This Item
Athens, GA: The University of Georgia Press, 1987 Book. Fine. Hardcover. 2nd Edition. Large Octavo. Large 8vo. xi (i), 582 (4) pp, illus. and maps. Second Edition, 1987. Not Price Clipped. Pristine, no wear. No markings, tight binding, clean, white and bright. 6.5" x 9.25". Red cloth with black lettering to spine. Illustrated dj in acetate protector. "Four historians consider the popularly held explanations for southern defeat -- state-rights disputes, inadequate military supply and strategy, and the Union blockade -- undergirding their discussion with a chronological account of the war's progress. In the end, the authors find that the South lacked the will to win, that weak Confederate nationalism and the strength of a peculiar brand of evangelical Protestantism sapped the South's ability to continue a war that was not yet lost on the field.".
