On the eve of the Civil War, more Afircan-Americans lived in
Virginia than in any other state- 490,000 slaves and 59,000 free
blacks- and they were active participants in the single most
dynamic event to shape the American consciousness. Black
Confederates and Afro-Yankees in Civil War Virginia is the first
comprehensive study of Civil War Afro-Virginian history and
culture. Through it we witness every aspect of black life: slave
and free; rural and urban; homefront and battlefield; at work on
plantations but also in munitions factories in Richmond; as wartime
Union spies and as soldiers in the Confederate army.
