Christine Harrison wants nothing more than to marry a man of good standing and wealth—and to achieve this goal, she has been collecting useful acquaintances for years. Her strategic social navigation seems to have paid off in the form of one Mr. Oliver Davenport. Their relationship has been building steadily, and surely a proposal cannot be far off. But when Christine and her friends travel to Cassfield Manor to secure their futures, a pair of brothers enter the scene and threaten to disrupt Christine’s perfect plans. Their arrival brings to light more than Christine could have ever expected—haunting pasts, blackmail, unpaid debts, dangerous circumstances, and secrets that will one day affect them all. As plots are revealed, Christine must learn to see beyond wealth and status and instead look for love with her own heart. But can the man who loves her most realize how much he cares for her before it’s too late?

This volume narrates the major battles and campaigns of the conflict, conveying the full military experience during the Civil War. The military encounters between Union and Confederate soldiers and between both armies and irregular combatants and true non-combatants structured the four years of war. These encounters were not solely defined by violence, but military encounters gave the war its central architecture. Chapters explore well-known battles, such as Antietam and Gettysburg, as well as military conflict in more abstract places, defined by political qualities (like the border or the West) or physical ones (such as rivers or seas). Chapters also explore the nature of civil-military relations as Union armies occupied parts of the South and garrison troops took up residence in southern cities and towns, showing that the Civil War was not solely a series of battles but a sustained process that drew people together in more ambiguous settings and outcomes.
