Description

Words at War: The Civil War and American Journalism analyzes the various ways in which the nation's newspaper editors; reporters; and war correspondents covered the biggest story of their lives-the Civil War-and in doing so both reflected and shaped the responses of their readers. The four sections of the book; Fighting Words; Confederates and Copperheads; The Union Forever; and Continuing Conflict trace the evolving role of the press in the antebellum; wartime; and postwar periods.
