| Publisher Description: After nearly 150 years, there still remains the scars of the Union Army's savage policy of "total war" in their invasion of the Christian South. Their aim was the destruction of Southern culture which included the desecration of houses of worship and the resting place of the sacred dead. Nothing was off limits; arson, rape, murder, thievery, grave-robbing and even physical torture. All this was carried out with the silent approval of the Lincoln Administration and the pleasure of the Northern radicals. |
