Book Overview
Originally published to mark the sesquicentennial of the American Civil War, The Yellowhammer War collects new essays on the many facets of Alabama's diverse roles in and experiences of America's great national catastrophe and its aftermath. Commemorations throughout the state have often expanded on the pageantry of the Civil War and glorified its figures, events, and battles with sometimes dubious attention to historical fact and little awareness of those who supported, resisted, or tolerated the war off the battlefield. In addition to examining the military and political history of Alabama's Civil War contributions, this volume also covers fascinating areas of study usually neglected by centennial scholars, such as race, women, the home front, and Reconstruction. The Yellow-hammer War treats scholars and readers to a broad canvas of topics on the Civil War and Alabama history. Book jacket.
