A Companion to the Civil War and Reconstruction is an extraordinary collection of 26 essays on the most important topics and themes of the American Civil War and Reconstruction. These original essays by top scholars in the field are organized into three parts reflecting three major periods of the war and its aftermath: »Sectional Conflict and the Coming of the Civil War,« »The Civil War and American Society,« and »Reconstruction and the New Nation.« Each essay is an interpretive summary of the key literature in the field and places the topic in its historical context. Contributors include bibliographies and suggest future directions for historiography. This Companion provides a valuable guide to Civil War and Reconstruction history.
