The essays in this volume reconsider the impact of the Civil War on Pennsylvania and the way its memory remains alive even today. These ten essays include courage on the battlefield but reflect the current trends to understand the motivations of soldiers and the impact of war on civilians, rather than focusing solely on battles or leadership.
