Why the South Lost the Civil War (Brown Thrasher Books)
- Used Book in Good Condition
In this widely heralded book first published in 1986, four historians consider the popularly held explanations for southern defeatâ€•state-rights disputes, inadequate military supply and strategy, and the Union blockadeâ€•undergirding their discussion with a chronological account of the war's progress. In the end, the authors find that the South lacked the will to win, that weak Confederate nationalism and the strength of a peculiar brand of evangelical Protestantism sapped the South's ability to continue a war that was not yet lost on the field.
