[A] comprehensive study of life in Georgia during the Civil War . .
. The account is clear, realistic, and intimate and is based upon
the dominant theme of people constantly making adjustments and
adaptations to a new way of life occasioned by the war. . . . [A]
distinct contribution to the growing historiography of the
South.--B. H. Nelson "Journal of Negro History"
An excellent performance. It is organized and written with
considerable skill; and its soundness is revealed by the impressive
research on which it is based. Seldom does a monograph rest upon
such a broad foundation of original sources. It is a model of
research.--Frank L. Owsley "Mississippi Valley Historical
Review"
With a fine grasp of Confederate history evident throughout,
[Bryan] properly sticks well to Georgia. Political and military
events are adequately handled, but Bryan's flair is for the social
and economic.--James W. Silver "Journal of Southern History"
