This volume narrates the major battles and campaigns of the
conflict, conveying the full military experience during the Civil
War. The military encounters between Union and Confederate soldiers
and between both armies and irregular combatants and true
non-combatants structured the four years of war. These encounters
were not solely defined by violence, but military encounters gave
the war its central architecture. Chapters explore well-known
battles, such as Antietam and Gettysburg, as well as military
conflict in more abstract places, defined by political qualities
(like the border or the West) or physical ones (such as rivers or
seas). Chapters also explore the nature of civil-military relations
as Union armies occupied parts of the South and garrison troops
took up residence in southern cities and towns, showing that the
Civil War was not solely a series of battles but a sustained
process that drew people together in more ambiguous settings and
outcomes.
