For Cause and Comrades
Why Men Fought in the Civil War

Drawing on letters written by over 1000 soldiers, both Union and Confederate, during the American Civil War, this book recreates the war and its battles. It finds the men to be idealistic about the cause for which they fought, regardless of the obstacles and deprivations that they faced.
