His and Partnerships is a realistic view of the American landscape that juxtaposes history and the late- twentieth century.

Northerners and Southerners hastily prepared for a war that would surely end within a few months. Union and Confederate politicians failed to foresee four years of bloody conflict, nor did they expect to confront the massive prisoner of war crisis that this war generated. During the years 1861-1865, Union and Confederate officials held a combined 409,608 Americans as prisoners of war.1 The prisoner of war crisis is a significant part of Civil War history. However, historians have largely neglected the prison camps, and the men they held.
