Book Description:

This volume's sixteen essays illuminate, through Constance Fenimore Woolson's example, the neglected world of Reconstruction's backwaters in literary developments that were politically charged and genuinely unpredictable. These essays investigate the mysterious, ravaged territory of a defeated nation as curious northern readers first saw it.
