Ends of War: The Unfinished Fight of Lee\'s Army After Appomattox
ISBN: 9781469674308 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The Army of Northern Virginia's chaotic dispersal began even before Lee and Grant met at Appomattox Court House. As the Confederates had pushed west at a relentless pace for nearly a week, thousands of wounded and exhausted men fell out of the ranks. When word spread that Lee planned to surrender, most remaining troops stacked their arms and accepted paroles allowing them to return home, even as they lamented the loss of their country and cause. But others broke south and west, hoping to continue the fight. Fearing a guerrilla war, Grant extended the generous Appomattox terms to every rebel...

Burying the Dead but Not the Past: Ladies' Memorial Associations and the Lost Cause
ISBN: 9780807872253 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Immediately after the Civil War, white women across the South organized to retrieve the remains of Confederate soldiers. In Virginia alone, these Ladies' Memorial Associations (LMAs) relocated and reinterred the remains of more than 72,000 soldiers. Challenging the notion that southern white women were peripheral to the Lost Cause movement until the 1890s, Caroline Janney restores these women as the earliest creators and purveyors of Confederate tradition. Long before national groups such as the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and the United Daughters of the Confederacy were established,...

Remembering the Civil War: Reunion and the Limits of Reconciliation
ISBN: 9781469629896 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) As early as 1865, survivors of the Civil War were acutely aware that people were purposefully shaping what would be remembered about the war and what would be omitted from the historical record. In Remembering the Civil War, Caroline E. Janney examines how the war generation--men and women, black and white, Unionists and Confederates--crafted and protected their memories of the nation's greatest conflict. Janney maintains that the participants never fully embraced the reconciliation so famously represented in handshakes across stone walls. Instead, both Union and Confederate veterans,...

Cold Harbor to the Crater: The End of the Overland Campaign
ISBN: 9781469625331 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Between the end of May and the beginning of August 1864, Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and Gen. Robert E. Lee oversaw the transition between the Overland campaign--a remarkable saga of maneuvering and brutal combat--and what became a grueling siege of Petersburg that many months later compelled Confederates to abandon Richmond. Although many historians have marked Grant's crossing of the James River on June 12-15 as the close of the Overland campaign, this volume interprets the fighting from Cold Harbor on June 1-3 through the battle of the Crater on July 30 as the last phase of an operation that...
