Weirding the War: Stories from the Civil War's Ragged Edges by Edited by Stephen Berry
Author:Edited by Stephen Berry
Format: pdf
Tags: “It is well that war is so terrible,” Robert E. Lee reportedly said, “or we would grow too fond of it.” The essays collected here make the case that we have grown too fond of it, and therefore we must make the war ter�rible again. Taking a “freakonomics” approach to Civil War studies, each contributor uses a seemingly unusual story, incident, or phenomenon to cast new light on the nature of the war itself. Collectively the essays remind us that war is always about damage, even at its most heroic and even when certain people and things deserve to be damaged., Publisher:University of Georgia Press, Published:2011, Related ISBN:9780820334134, Language:English, OCLC:778616678
