Larry: A history reading suggestion to get a feel of the pre-Civil War society as well as during the War for both North and South, including politics, economy, society etc is "Battle Cry of Freedom" by Dr James McPherson. It's a comprehensive look @ those times.

Barbara, thanks. Read it some time ago when I was in the Army and at the War College for a class. Really enjoyed it.
