Singing the New Nation: How Music Shaped the Confederacy, 1861-1865

Clean, sturdy and unmarked. Scholarly volumes have been written about the causes of the war, presenting plausible reasons for the bloodbath of the 1860s. The arguments are endless and fascinating. Every generation finds new insight into the times. What has largely been ignored is the role of songs in Americas Civil War. This book chronicles the wars social history in terms of its seldom discussed musical side, and is told from the perspective of the South. Outmanned and outgunned during the War, the South was certainly not musically bested.
