The Oxford Handbook of the American Civil War
Oxford University Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-19-090305-3 (ISBN)
The Oxford Handbook of the American Civil War assembles the contributions of thirty-nine leading scholars of the Civil War, each chapter advancing the central thesis that operational military history is decisively linked to the social and political history of Civil War America. The chapters cover all three major theaters of the war and include discussions of Bleeding Kansas, the Union naval blockade, the South West, American Indians, and Reconstruction. Each essay offers a particular interpretation of how one of the war's campaigns resonated in the larger world of the North and South. Taken together, these chapters illuminate how key transformations operated across national, regional, and local spheres, covering key topics such as politics, race, slavery, emancipation, gender, loyalty, and guerrilla warfare.

She is the author of four books about the American Civil War including The Yankee Plague: Escaped Union Prisoners of War, The Gentlemen and the Roughs: Manhood, Honor, and Violence in the Union Army, and Seeking the One Great Remedy: Francis George Shaw and Nineteenth-Century Reform. Earl J. Hess, Emeritus Professor of History at Lincoln Memorial University, is the author of twenty-four books about the Civil War, including Civil War Supply and Strategy: Feeding Men and Moving Armies, Civil War Logistics: A Study of Military Transportation, and Civil War Infantry Tactics: Training, Combat, and Small-Unit Effectiveness.
