Weirding the War, edited by UGA associate professor Stephen Berry, uses a collection of essays to capture the cultural experiences of the civilians whose lives were torn apart by the four-year war. Readers looking to learn about the battles, the leaders, the politics, and the philosophies, this is not your book. However, if you want to learn about the romance between Southern belles and occupying troops, about ambivalence in the Carolinas, about poverty in the South, or about communities of deserters, this is your book.
