Although he credits Confederate conscription with a high degree of success, he blames it for causing dissension between state and national officials and for creating bureaucratic problems of colossal proportions.William Garrett Piston's introduction places the volume in its historical context and underscores one of its most remarkable aspects—Moore's admission that a large number of Southerners did not support the Confederacy.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
