Reviews
Opposition to military service is an important tradition in American history. Its mass expression was in the Civil War, when only a small fraction of men drafted by the Lincoln administration complied with the call to protect the republic. 'Tis Not Our War explores the evolution in Northerners' views of fighting, from military service as a patriotic opportunity to a form of forced labor not that different from the chattel slavery that, with great controversy, the Emancipation Proclamation declared as the Union's target. The elaborate bounties and allowance for substitutes with which northern recruiters incentivized military-age men, the diverse ruses of which shirkers were capable, widespread anti-war racism, and exposure to mortal danger of provost marshals ordered to round up draft dodgers, in hindsight, and keeping in mind the Union's goal to thwart secession and end slavery, now seems shocking. But as all good history does, 'Tis Not Our War shows how a culture of disloyalty made sense to many Northerners in the moment. --Dr. Timothy Mason Roberts, editor of "This Infernal War" The Civil War Letters of William and Jane Standard

Synopsis
James McPherson's classic book For Cause & Comrades explained "why men fought in the Civil War"-and spurred countless other historians to ask and attempt to answer the same question. But few have explored why men did not fight. That's the question Paul Taylor answers in this groundbreaking Civil War history that examines the reasons why at least ......, James McPherson's classic book For Cause & Comrades explained "why men fought in the Civil War"-and spurred countless other historians to ask and attempt to answer the same question. But few have explored why men did not fight. That's the question Paul Taylor answers in this groundbreaking Civil War history that examines the reasons why at least 60 percent of service-eligible men in the North chose not to serve and why, to some extent, their communities allowed them to do so. Didthese other men not feel the same patriotic impulses as their fellow citizens who rushed to the enlistment office? Did they not believe in the sanctity of the Union? Was freeing men held in chains under chattel slavery not a righteous moral crusade? And why did some soldiers come to regret their enlistment and try to leave the military? 'Tis Not Our War answers these questions by focusing on the thoughts, opinions, and beliefs of average civilians and soldiers. Taylor digs deep into primary sources-newspapers, diaries, letters, archival manuscripts, military reports, and published memoirs-to paint a vivid and richly complex portrait of men who questioned military service in the Civil War and to show that the North was never as unified in support of the war as portrayed in much of America's collective memory.

- t***t (304)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufAAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book was shipped very quickly and item price was also good. My only complaint is the shipping packaging. This book came loosely placed in a plastic bag so I can't tell if the damage to the dust jacket happened in shipping or it was already in that condition. But, as I already stated, the overall price was good so I shouldn't really complain. Overall, I've had positive experience with hpb-ruby so I'd still definitely recommend buying from them.
- e***i (156)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGreat book for a great price. Shipped quickly, but only packed in a poly bag, so the book suffered some mild corner damage in shipping. Aside from that, the book matched the description of its condition and I’m happy overall. Great seller!
