This collection of essays focuses on what is regarded as the longest and most important Civil War campaign in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, lasting over four months and taking more than 25,000 lives. The book consists of 11 essays by respected historians who reexamine assumptions about the campaign, its major figures (including Lt. Gen. Jubal A. Early and Major Gen. Philip H. Sheridan), and its significance. The essays also highlight important connections between the home front and the battlefield, as well as the ways in which military affairs, civilian experiences, and politics played off one another during the campaign.
