Glenn (history, Southern Methodist U., Texas) and Virginia Linden (sculpture, New Mexico State U.) edit and reflect on the journal of Civil War era plantation owner Augustus Benners. The book is a valuable primary source, as Benners closely recorded the events of the war, and in particular the actions of the Confederate army. In addition, he writes about life with and the losses of beloved family and friends; business woes due to the war; and his interactions with, observances of, and complicated feelings regarding the slaves--called "hands" and "negroes"--that he kept on his land.
