| Item Description: | This book "provides a personal, primary-source exploration of the Civil War era from several different perspectives in an unusually full and informative narrative. Through the intimacy of letters, it tells the compelling story of young men and women of a North Georgia farming family of modest means as they seek places in their quiet communities in the 1850s, live the trauma of the Civil War on the battlefield and at home and, for those who survive, strive to regain peace in a changed world"--Book cover. |
