About this product
Product Information
This award-winning history offers an intimate, ground-level account of the out-break and early years of the Civil War in its bloodiest theater: the Great Valley spanning Virginia and Pennsylvania. It marks a major departure from the view of the Civil War as an inevitable conflict between opposing sections with the North bound to prevail. A magnificent social history, it breathes life back into the people of the time, recovers the uncertainties and possibilities in the prewar crisis, and restores the drama to the shattering events of the war.

Reviews
Seelig kindly visited Walser and started keeping a record of his opinions,creating over the course of time an indispensable document for all those wholove Walser's surprising prose, which, silent as snowfall, cries out from thenothingness. Walser--as can be observed in Seelig's book--lectured on beerand twilight., Ayers unfolds this historical process with penetrating analysis and relevant quotations, emphasizing the anxiety, excitement, and misery...the war provoked., This original and gracefully written work, based on exhaustive primary research, should be required reading for Civil War enthusiasts and scholars alike., That Walser is not today among the forgotten writers we owe primarily to thefact that Carl Seelig took up his cause. Without Seelig's accounts of the walkshe took with Walser, without his preliminary work on the biography, without theselections from the work he published and the lengths he went to in securingthe Nachlass--the writer's millions of illegible ciphers--Walser's rehabilitationcould never have taken place, and his memory would in all probability havefaded into oblivion., Gives readers a fuller picture than they'd obtain from a more conventional micro-history....engrossing., Walks with Walser is filled with Walser's philosophy about leading a modest life, finding beauty in mundane things, and getting by with less., This original and gracefully written work, based on exhaustive primary research, should be required reading for Civil War enthusiass and scholars alike.
