The stories are organized around five broad themes: the Northern home front, the Southern home front, children, African Americans, and the war's aftermath. The case studies feature voices of the famous, like Edmund Riffin and Booker T. Washington, but more often they offer the testimony of ordinary men, women, and children. \u003cbr\u003e A superb blend of traditional narrative, case studies, and individual stories,\u003ci\u003e Civil War America\u003c\/i\u003e is a valuable resource for students and their teachers seeking to understand the many ways in which the Civil War was truly a people's war.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52580237345048,"sku":"9780823227945","price":28.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/civil-war-america-voices-from-the-home-front-paperback-softback-9780823227945","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
