Captives in Gray

The Civil War Prisons of the Union

Beschreibung

Perhaps no topic is more heated, and the sources more tendentious, than that of Civil War prisons and the treatment of prisoners of war (POWs). This book investigates variations between camps and overall prison policy and determines what actually happened in the admittedly over-crowded, under-supplied, and poorly administered camps.

Autor

Roger Pickenpaugh is the author of a dozen works of history, including Rescue by Rail: Troop Transfer and the Civil War in the West, 1863 and Camp Chase and the Evolution of Union Prison Policy.
