Title: Fighting words
Description: "In this new approach to the study of the American Civil War, Andrew S. Coopersmith delves into hundreds of local newspapers published during the conflict, providing a selection of colorful, idiosyncratic, and highly opinionated reports that both educate and entertain. Fighting Words incorporates extensive excerpts from a wide range of period newspapers - from the New Orleans Bee to the Springfield Republican, from the Anglo-African to the Irish-American." "Fighting Words is illustrated with over 100 facsimile reproductions from the newspapers themselves, including etchings, headlines, and editorials never before available to a contemporary audience."--BOOK JACKET.
