Synopsis
Advance Praise for A Ruined Land "A social and military history of the waning days and the end of the Civil War in Virginia, eastern Georgia, and the Carolinas. Solidly researched and finely written, it is a tragic and seldom-told story that illuminates this 'ruined land.'" -Alan T. Nolan, author of The Iron Brigade and Lee Considered General Robert E. Lee and Civil War History "A richly variegated narrative, chock-full of dramatic episodes and colorful vignettes, smoothly woven together to bring the final months of war and the early stages of Reconstruction vividly to life." -Michael Burlingame, Professor of History, Connecticut College, and Lincoln biographer "Well researched and beautifully written....; This book will appeal to historians and the general public alike." -William N. Still Jr., coauthor of Why the South Lost Praise for Michael Golay's To Gettysburg and Beyond "Ably captures the swirling chaos of battle. We are provided and ever-revolving point of view...;enriched by the letters of foot soldiers and by the grand strategic accounts of generals." -New York Times Book Review "Superb." -America's Civil War "Thoughtful and well-written...;a riveting portrait of two men who felt they had outlived the historical moment." -Kirkus Reviews "Fascinating...; Golay's account is masterful....;Well-chosen detail makes Gola's story vivid." -Hartford Courant, "This fascinating social history, through Golay's expert use of sources, brings to life a time in America's past that promised so much but delivered so little, expecially to former slaves."-Publishers Weekly "A tautly woven narrative history..Lively and readable."-Kirkus Reviews In a fascinating approach that allows the voices of those touched by the Civil War to speak for themselves, gifted writer Michael Golay shows the impact of victory and defeat on the ordinary Americans who both influenced events and were caught up in them. Using illuminating new material, much of it previously unpublished, Golay takes a unique perspective by interweaving personal histories of soldiers and civilians with the larger events of the Civil War. Among the events of this bitter conflict, Golay illuminates the impact of Sherman's march through Georgia and the Carolinas, the despair caused by the assassination of Lincoln, the first bitter weeks of armistice, the immediate postwar life in a devastated, chaotic South, and the promise of freedom for African American slaves. Through the letters, diaries, and other literary remains of those who experienced the war, we gain a vivid, panoramic look at the effects of a bitter struggle and at the efforts of both sides to work toward a solution to problems where effective answers were elusive., 'Fascinating social history.'-Publishers WeeklyA vivid, panoramic look at the closing months of the Civil War and the first months of peace and beyondAs the Civil War drew to a close, its final battles and unsolved issues left a complex legacy of pain for both the Southern plantation owners and the newly freed slaves. Using letters and diaries, gifted writer Michael Golay shows the impact of victory and defeat on ordinary Americans who both influenced events and were caught up in them. Golay takes a unique perspective by interweaving personal histories of soldiers and civilians with the larger events of the Civil War; illuminating the impact of Sherman's march through Georgia and the Carolinas; postwar life in a devastated, chaotic South; and the promise of freedom for African American slaves. Based in large part on previously unpublished material, Golay provides a vivid look at the aftermath of a bitter struggle, and the efforts to solve problems where answers were elusive., A vivid, panoramic look at the closing months of the Civil War and the first months of peace and beyond, tracking the final phases of total war, the collapse of the old southern social system, the emerging of a new order in the South, and the coming of peace to the exhausted North.

- n***d (50)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufExcellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!Tenko : Complete BBC Series Box Set [DVD] - DVD EQVG The Cheap Fast Free Post (Nr. 306002146201)
- 6***t (480)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufPurchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
