Book Barbarians and Brothers

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wayne E. Lee
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2014
  • ISBN : 019937645X
  • Pages : 353 pages

Download or read book Barbarians and Brothers written by Wayne E. Lee and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historian Wayne Lee here presents a searching exploration of early modern English and American warfare, including the English Civil War and the American Revolution. He shows that, in the end, the repeated experience of wars with barbarians or brothers created an American culture of war that demands absolute solutions: enemies are either to be incorporated or rejected, included or excluded. And that determination plays a major role in defining the violence used against them.

Book American Civil War Guerrillas

Download or read book American Civil War Guerrillas written by Daniel E. Sutherland and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on a little-known yet critical aspect of the American Civil War, this must-read history illustrates how guerrilla warfare shaped the course of the war and, to a surprisingly large extent, determined its outcome. The Civil War is generally regarded as a contest of pitched battles waged by large armies on battlefields such as Gettysburg. However, as American Civil War Guerrillas: Changing the Rules of Warfare makes clear, that is far from the whole story. Both the Union and Confederate armies waged extensive guerrilla campaigns—against each other and against civilian noncombatants. Exposing an aspect of the War Between the States many readers will find unfamiliar, this book demonstrates how the unbridled and unexpectedly brutal nature of guerrilla fighting profoundly affected the tactics and strategies of the larger, conventional war. The reasons for the rise and popularity of guerrilla warfare, particularly in the South and lower Midwest, are examined, as is the way each side dealt with its consequences. Guerrilla warfare's impact on the outcome of the conflict is analyzed as well. Finally, the role of memory in shaping history is touched on in an epilogue that explores how veteran Civil War guerrillas recalled their role in the war.

  • Author : Karine Deslandes
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2017-10-24
  • ISBN : 3319611798
  • Pages : 253 pages

Download or read book Civil War and Narrative written by Karine Deslandes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the representation of intra-state conflicts. It offers a distinctive approach by looking at narrative forms and strategies associated with civil war testimony, historiography and memory. The volume seeks to reflect current research in civil war in a number of disciplines and covers a range of geographical areas, from the advent of modern forms of testimonies, history writing and public remembering in the early modern period, to the present day. In focusing on narrative, broadly defined, the contributors not only explore civil war testimonies, historiography and memory as separate fields of inquiry, but also highlight the interplay between these areas, which are shown to share porous boundaries. Chapters look at the ways in which various narrative forms feed off each other, be they oral, written or visual narratives, personal or collective accounts, or testimonies from victims or perpetrators.
