- Double-weighted statement
- This is a research monograph and a “longer-form output”. It includes 256 pages and approx. 120K word. The book reflects more than a decade of research, principally in manuscript collections but also government documents, newspapers, and published sources, consulted in American archives (Mississippi, Washington DC, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University and the University of Mississippi). The book investigates the construction of the concepts of American citizenship and loyalty during the Civil War and its aftermath, focusing on the difficult position of Confederate citizens after the War and the fight for emancipation of African Americans.
