Confederate Georgia functioned effectively in the first half of the war with white women and slaves assuming added responsibilities. Governor Joseph E. Brown's states' rights crusade handicapped the new central government in Richmond, and finally Sherman's invasion and devastating march to the sea doomed Rebel Georgia by the end of 1864. "Rebel Georgia" is a popular treatment of the Civil War in Georgia. It tells the story of how the strain of this modern, total war relentlessly ravaged the state's resources and weakened its resolve to fight for the Confederate cause. "Rebel Georgia" is exceptionally well written and a superb contribution to Civil War studies reading lists.Boney, F. N. is the author of 'Rebel Georgia' with ISBN 9780865545519 and ISBN 0865545510.
