Noyalas Hardcover, 344 Pages, Published 2020 by Lsu Press ISBN-13: 978-0-8071-7198-1, ISBN: 0-8071-7198-0 "In recent years, Civil War veterans have emerged from the darkness of historical obscurity. Inspired by the recent interest in memory studies and energized by the ongoing neo-revisionist turn, a rich new literature has given the lie to the once obligatory lament that the postbellum lives of Civil War soldiers were irretrievable. Yet despite this flood of historical scholarship, basic questions about the essential character of Civil War ..." |

Indeed, scholars taking a holistic view of the war have contributed to our understanding of the social complexities of emancipation--of freedom in a white republic--and the multifaceted experiences of both civilians and soldiers. Given these accomplishments, rese ..." |

In fact, the fight was a decisive Federal victory and important turning point in the campaign, as historian Brian Matthew Jordan argues convincingly in his fresh inte ..." |

Likewise, professional historians began rethinking the Civil War in light of the nation's victory in World War II.
