      abstract = {The author of an acclaimed account of the lives of  children in the Civil War, Marten here provides a more  comprehensive introduction to the civilian history of the  Civil War. Concise, vividly written chapters describe the  home front through the lives of individuals and the  histories of events and institutions in the North and  South. The stories are organized around five broad themes:  the Northern home front, the Southern home front, children,  African Americans, and the war's aftermath. The case  studies feature voices of the famous, like Edmund Riffin  and Booker T. Washington, but more often they offer the  testimony of ordinary men, women, and children. A superb  blend of traditional narrative, case studies, and  individual stories, Civil War America is a valuable  resource for students and their teachers seeking to  understand the many ways in which the Civil War was truly a  people's war.},
