Civil War Petersburg

"Greene's book tracks both Petersburg's civilian experience and the city's place in Confederate military strategy and administration. Employing scores of unpublished sources, the book weaves a uniquely personal story of thousands of citizens - free blacks, slaves and their holders, factory owners, merchants - all of whom shared a singular experience in Civil War Virginia."--BOOK JACKET.

A. Wilson Greene is Executive Director of Pamplin Historical Park and the National Museum of the Civil War Soldier.
