Synopsis

Thoughtful historical details in present-day fiction and mementos chronicling life during the Civil War provide a variety of perspectives on an often-misunderstood culture. Joseph, a teen of today, moves to the North, where he encounters the old biases and stereotypes still held against those who value their Southern heritage. Lucinda Johnson tells of war against the women of the South and how her great-grandmother fought back. Men and women young and old take center stage in painting the picture of the true South before and after the Civil War in this collection of stories.
