This is the fourth volume in the illustrated "Men-At-Arms" series to be devoted to the armies of the American Civil War. Discussed in this book is the role of the State Troops, and their weapons, equipment and uniforms.
"The War between the States" is the term used for the American Civil War (1861-1865)throughout much of the South even today. Many on both sides - not just the South - felt that they were serving their states as much, if not more, than their central governments. Many of the states agreed; the state governments raising their own units, commissioning their officers, and supplying their men. Indeed, many of the units that fought the Civil War were supplied in large part by their own states rather than by the central government's quartermasters. Philip Katcher's fascinating text explores the uniforms of 32 states; from Alabama to Wisconsin.
