Four Years in Rebel Capitals

For four long years, the American Civil War tore America apart. In this book, author and playwrite T.C. DeLeon relates a very Southern take on those years, looking at life in the major cities of the South during the war. DeLeon's narrative not only offers a rich wealth of detail into the facts of life in the South during those years. It also gives an insight into the attitudes of the time, and of subsequent years. The archive nature of this work and the historical period in which in is based means that some terms and phrases are present which would rightly not be considered acceptable in the Twenty First Century. However, for historical accuracy, these have been left intact. Some of the attitudes expressed are equally difficult but have again been left intact for the sake of historical accuracy.
