Recenzii
The war's origin here reveals its many reflections.
A scintillating look at an historical question that won't go away. The answers, in this collection of seven essays, are fresh and evocative, as seven of the leading scholars in the field offer new perspectives on the role of blacks, women, Lincoln, and the nation's democratic procedures in the coming of the Civil War. The result is `must' reading for all students of the period.
Certain to breathe new life into an old subject.
A fine addition to the distinguished series of Gettysburg Civil War Institute books.
an invaluable collection of essays exploring a variety of aspects of the war's origins. The book provides the fullest portrait yet available about the relationship of different groups of American society to the coming of war, for it examines the actions and attitudes of women, of African Americans, of Northerners, of Southerners, of politicians, and of ordinary citizens. Highly readable, it offers new approaches to traditional questions and will stimulate fresh discussion about one of the most important problems in American history. It will also be an excellent book for use in undergraduate teaching.
These always stimulating and sometimes quirky essays explore new dimensions of this endlessly fascinating, yet formative, event in American history.
Elegant, provocative, edifying.
This is Women Studies at its best.
