Yet scant attention has been given to the civilian government of the Confederacy. The most recent book on the subject was published in 1944, and what little has been written since is scattered among various journals and magazines. Drawing on scholarship old and new, this book provides a detailed overview of each of the Confederacy's six executive departments, along with biographical sketches of each man who held a position in Jefferson Davis's cabinet, from Secretary of State to Postmaster General. - Back cover. 651 0 $a Confederate States of America $x Politics and government. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85030856 651 0 $a Confederate States of America $x Officials and employees $v Biography. 650 0 $a Cabinet officers $z Confederate States of America $v Biography. 600 10 $a Davis, Jefferson, $d 1808-1889 $x Friends and associates. 651 0 $a Confederate States of America $v Biography. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85030833 600 17 $a Davis, Jefferson, $d 1808-1889. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00047383 650 7 $a Cabinet officers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00843535 650 7 $a Employees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00909111 650 7 $a Friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935174 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a United States $z Confederate States of America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205435 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423686 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423686 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026049 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019012843.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B6A5B742F5D411E7B33F7C0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
