Offering both breadth and depth and considering both images of childhood and childrens own experiences, the essays address slavery, sectionalism, war, emancipation, reconstruction, and memory from multiple vantage points. A selection of documents further enrich this anthology, which represents the burgeoning field of childhood and youth in the Civil War era." -Anya Jabour, author of "Topsy-Turvy: How the Civil War Turned the World Upside Down for Southern Children"
