Synopsis

Though it ended almost a century and half ago, the Civil War (The War of Northern Aggression, to those of you below the Mason-Dixon line) has and continues to catch the fancy of the world. No war or military conflict, before or since, has stirred as much debate and controversy as the War Between the States, those four bloody years between 1861 and 1865. The Complete Idiot's Guide® to the Confederacy will focus on the key people and events in Confederate history, as well as the decisive battles and gossipy and often overlooked details of the major players of the Confederacy―from the Battle of Gettysburg to Stonewall Jackson's supposed habit of sucking lemons, to the rumor of Jefferson Davis's cross-dressing habits. This is a book tailor-made for Civil War and Southern history buffs.
