When the Yankees Came: Chaos and Conflict in the Occupied South, 1861-1865 (Civil War America)

Rating:
Summary: Very Good Look at the South after Union Occupation
Review: A very interesting view of the other side of the Civil War. Ash takes the reader on a trip to the South and shows how life changed after the Union Army invaded. The book gives an overall look at the entire South, showing exactly how different regions were effected. Also includes many quotes from actual residents and cites from Southern newspapers, each giving the reader a true vision of what it was like to live there during the Civil War. A wonderful addition to a Civil War collection, especially if you are interested in the South.
