Fiction Fights the Civil War: An Unfinished Chapter in the Literary History of the American People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780807879153)

The author has used a score of first-rate novels, several dozen good yarns, and several hundred samples from the nation's sub-literature to demonstrate the uses of the historical novel and to reveal the changing meaning of the Civil War to the American public. The result is an important contribution to the history of ideas in the United States.

Originally published in 1957.
