When are people willing to sacrifice for the common good? What are the benefits of friendship? And how do communities deal with betrayal? Using the life histories of more than forty thousand Civil War soldiers, this book reveals the stories, social influences, and crucial networks that influenced soldiers' lives both during and after the war.
