Summary

This collection of thirteen essays examines the leaders of the southern states during the Civil War. Malcolm C. McMillan writes of the futile efforts of Alabamars"s wealthy governors to keep the trust of the poor non-slaveholding whites. Paul D. Escott shows Georgia Governor Joseph Emerson Brownrs"s ability to please both the planter elite and the yeoman farmers. John B. Edmunds, Jr. examines the tremendous problems faced by the governors of South Carolina, the state that would suffer the highest losses. Each of the contributors describes the governorrs"s reaction to undertaking duties never before required of men in their positions-urging men to battle, searching for means to feed and clothe the poor, boosting morale, and defending their staters"s territories, even against great odds.
