Daydreams and Nightmares

The decision of the eventual Confederate states to secede from the Union set in motion perhaps the most dramatic chapter in American history, and one that has typically been told on a grand scale. In Daydreams and Nightmares, however, historian Brent Tarter shares the story of one Virginia family who found themselves in the middle of the secession debate and saw their world torn apart.

Decizia eventualelor state confederate de a se separa de Uniune a pus in miscare probabil cel mai dramatic capitol din istoria americana si unul care a fost de obicei spus la scara larga. Cu toate acestea, in Daydreams and Nightmares, istoricul Brent Tarter impartaseste povestea unei familii din Virginia care s-a trezit in mijlocul dezbaterii secesiunii si si-a vazut lumea sfasiata.
