Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Beautiful BRAND NEW copy in protective mylar. A most interesting account of the music of the Civil War based on the author's premise that while ideologies spurred the war effort, they did so no less than raw emotion, especially that of the Confederacy which channeled it into heartfelt songs.In fact, this was so true that one historian remarked that if the war could be won by singing the outcome would have been different! 398 pages.
