| Sumario: | Black Flag over Dixie: Racial Atrocities and Reprisals in the Civil War highlights the central role that race played in the Civil War by examining some of the ugliest incidents that played out on its battlefields.

Edited by Gregory J.W. Urwin, this compelling volume focuses on the tendency of Confederate troops. |
