About This Book

A richly illustrated narrative history that traces the political tensions and military preparations leading to the civil conflict, then follows major land and naval campaigns, tactical innovations, and army organization on both sides. It examines emancipation, the recruitment and service of Black soldiers, homefront disturbances and draft riots, wartime finance, and humanitarian and sanitary efforts. Battlefield descriptions and campaign overviews culminate in the final operations and the transition from conflict to peace, with attention to soldier experience and public reaction.


NOTE.—For many of the facts related in this chapter we are indebted to Dr. L. P. Brackett's excellent volume on "Woman's Work in the Civil War."
INTERIOR OF HOSPITAL CONSTRUCTED BY THE SANITARY COMMISSION.
