Focusing on the Civil War, this collection showcases Alan T. Nolan's extensive research through essays on pivotal topics, including the Iron Brigade and significant figures like Lincoln and Lee. Nolan emphasizes the bravery of everyday soldiers, challenging romanticized views of the conflict. He argues that while the outcomes—emancipation and Union preservation—were significant, the war itself was marked by hardship rather than glory.
