Trade Review
This work greatly contributes to furthering the knowledge of the field, especially in the importance that religion, sacrifice, and patriotism had on nineteenth-century Americans during this conflict. It also highlights the nature of specific gender roles and societal expectations of masculinity and being the dutiful wife. . . . This would be a perfect work to assign in a class, undergraduate as well as graduate, in order to focus on those left behind." - Christopher Bean, history professor and department chair, East Central University, Oklahoma
