Why Confederates Fought
Av Aaron Sheehan-Dean, 2009.Del av serien Civil War America.
Family and Nation in Civil War Virginia
This title discusses the motivations for continuing the fight. In the first comprehensive study of the experience of Virginia soldiers and their families in the Civil War, Aaron Sheehan-Dean captures the inner world of the rank-and-file. He challenges earlier arguments that middle- and lower-class southerners gradually withdrew their support for the Confederacy because their class interests were not being met. Instead he argues that Virginia soldiers continued to be motivated by the profound emotional connection between military service and the protection of home and family, even as the war dragged on.
