Voices From The House Divided: The American Civil War As Personal Experience
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This text is an excellent supplement for Civil War or U.S. History survey course. Using diaries, letters, and other contemporary sources, this follows 20 individuals--Northerners and Southerners--from the outbreak of hostilities at Fort Sumter to the Confederate surrender of Appomattox four years later. The sources have been edited to a manageable length and include chapter introductions and headnotes. Students get a sense of the social dimension of the war, often neglected in textbooks.
