Its contributors use War and Society methods: a holistic approach to understanding war and its consequences that incorporates the topics and techniques of a variety of historical sub-fields. Each chapter narrates a military campaign embedded in its strategic, political, and social context. Authors explore the consequences of a military campaign for the people who lived in its path and provide analysis of how an army's presence reverberated throughout society in its region of operation. The volume yields a number of important insights about the impact of military campaigns, including the scale of movement, deportation, and depopulation among civilians; how the refugee experience and military action shaped emancipation as a process; the extent of guerrilla warfare; resistance to Federal authority in the Great Plains and the southwest; locations of localized total war; the implementation of military conscription in the Confederacy; a campaign's consequences for cities, rural areas, and the natural environment; the synergy between war and politics. Chapters consider the role of weather, topography, logistics, and engineering in the conduct of military campaigns"-- $c Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a United States $x Campaigns. $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Campaigns. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865. 648 7 $a 1861-1865 $2 fast 700 1 $a Foote, Lorien, $d 1969- $e editor. 700 1 $a Hess, Earl J., $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t The Oxford handbook of the American Civil War $d New York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2021] $z 9780197549988 $w (DLC) 2021002153 830 0 $a Oxford handbooks. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240119020400.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=53C0297CB4A811ECBDCF981B5BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
