Southern families at war. |
| Резюме: |
Whether it was planter patriarchs struggling to maintain authority, Jewish families coerced by Christian evangelicalism, or wives and mothers left behind to care for slaves and children, the Civil War took a terrible toll. From the bustling sidewalks of Richmond to the parched plains of the Texas frontier, from the rich Alabama black belt to the Tennessee woodlands, no corner of the South went unscathed. This volume of twelve essays provides an insight in to this watershed in American history, through the prism of the Southern family. |
