AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"[This] must surely be the richest and most many-sided book ever produced about the Civil War....Like many very good books, this one has an interesting but shaky thesis. The thesis...is that the moral issue of slavery had nothing to do with the war....It is Mr. Wilson's great strength that he does not allow a certain tendency towards idealization of the slave-owners, and towards apathy about the slaves, to come between us and a great quantity of evidence, carefully marshalled by himself, which will for many readers discourage any such tendencies."Wilson, Edmund is the author of 'Patriotic Gore Studies in the Literature of the American Civil War' with ISBN 9780393312560 and ISBN 0393312569.
