America's second oldest higher education institution experienced
the full violence of the Civil War, with a wartime destiny of
destruction compounded by its strategic location in Virginia's
Tidewater region between Union and Confederate lines. For the first
time in print, this book also explores in-depth the Civil War
service of the College's students, faculty, and alumni, ranging
from little-known individuals to historically prominent figures
such as Winfield Scott, John Tyler, and John J. Crittenden.
Overall, this study commemorates The College of William and Mary's
many contributions to the Civil War along with its role in shaping
pre- and post-war higher education in the South.
