Book Description
With the blockade of Southern ports and the lack of trading between the North and South during the Civil War, the Confederacy found itself in great deprivation, lacking its customary supplies. Showing great resourcefulness, southerners developed new ways to feed and clothe themselves and these adaptations and recipes were pulled together in 1863 by Richmond publishers West & Johnson, to share throughout the region in Confederate Receipt Book. The recipes were assembled from newspapers, staff, and other sources and were “designed to supply useful and economical directions and suggestions of cookery, housewifery, and for the camp.” Examples of resourceful recipes in Confederate Receipt Book include apple pie without apples, artificial oysters, and coffee substitutes as well as medicinal remedies for headaches, croup, and sore throats and making household items like candles and soap. The nature and extent of the items highlight the degree of difficulty that the Confederates faced and their ability to acclimate to the supplies at hand. Other examples include recipes for making ink, wicks for lamps, fire balls for fuel, and bread from numerous types of flours. The Confederate Receipt Book has as much quaint and amusing charm to present-day readers as it had practical significance to the beleaguered South fighting for its independence. This edition of Confederate Receipt Book was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection includes approximately 1,100 volumes.

Book Description
Originally published in 1863, this little book is a compilation of "receipts" to aid Southern households beset by shortages as the War Between the States raged on. "Designed to supply useful and economic directions and suggestions in cookery, housewifery . . . and for the camp," these helpful hints first appeared in newspapers and other sources. The original edition was bound in yellow, polka-dot wallpaper. Only five copies of that edition were known to exist a hundred years later. "A Cheap and Quick Pudding," "Apple Pie Without Apples," "Artificial Oysters," "Spruce Beer," "Soap," "Confederate Candles," "Simple Cure for Croup," "Method of Curing Bad Butter," "To Purify River or Muddy Water," and "Hints for the Ladies" on "freshening" a dress to the new style--these are all included, over a hundred "receipts" to get by in hard times. Confederate Receipts has as much sentimental appeal to modern readers as it had practical value to a previous generation.

Book Description
Godey's Lady's Book, perhaps the most popular magazine for women in nineteenth-century America, had a national circulation of 150,000 during the 1860s. The recipes (spelled ""receipts"") it published were often submitted by women from both the North and the South, and they reveal the wide variety of regional cooking that characterized American culture. There is a remarkable diversity in the recipes, thanks to the largely rural readership of Godey's Lady's Book and to the immigrant influence on the country in the 1860s. Fish and game were readily available in rural America, and the number of seafood recipes testifies to the abundance of the coastal waters and rivers. The country cook was a frugal cook, particularly during wartime, so there are a great many recipes for leftovers and seasonal produce. In addition to a wide sampling of recipes that can be used today, Civil War Recipes includes information on Union and Confederate army rations, cooking on both homefronts, and substitutions used during the war by southern cooks.

Book Description
Did Confederate armies attack too often for their own good during the Civil War? Was the relentless, sometimes costly effort to preserve territory a blunder? These questions about Confederate strategy have dogged historians since Appomattox. Many have come to believe that the South might have won the Civil War if it had only avoided head-on battles, conducted an aggressive guerrilla campaign, and manoeuvred across wide swaths of territory. This volume offers a consideration of this widely-held theory.

Book Description
This book has been nominated for the prestigious Pulitzer Prize in American history. This book is the authors protest against the removal of confederate statues and monuments. The author wants you to join his fight to preserve the history of the confederacy, and he plans to donate a significant portion of the proceeds from this book to legitimate organizations diligently working to maintain America's history. By purchasing this book, you'll demonstrate your support for keeping the history of the Confederate States of America alive. In the forward of the book, the author eviscerates the woefully ignorant individuals and the despicable pandering politicians demanding the removal of confederate monuments; which in effect, is akin to stealing knowledge from future generations of African American's. Their actions equate to racism. Many people have commented they would have purchased the book simple for the forward and dedication. The book contains over 400 photographic portraits of the courageous generals of the Confederacy. The Civil War was a tragic and bloody rebellion in American history claiming the lives of nearly 700,000 soldiers fighting for the Union and The Confederate States of America. Most historians agree the Confederate soldiers were considered Americans during the war, and are deemed Americans today. Many of the Confederate Generals in this book fought for America in the Mexican War before resigning their commissions to serve heroically in the Confederate States of America military. In the eyes of millions of Southerners and Northerners, these men were true patriots of the South. No one can deny they are an integral part of America history and they must be remembered. After the civil war, the surviving Confederate Generals quickly reconciled with the Union and supported it. Many of these Generals later served in the United States Senate, the United States Congress and as Governors of states. Never forget, as surely as Union Generals viewed themselves as patriots, the Generals of the South considered themselves patriots. All served, all sacrificed. All carried visible and internal wounds for life, and all bled in some fashion. Those are the perils of war and all who served, deserve respect and their place in history. It's been said a picture is worth a thousand words. Each image in this book speaks countess words. "I have fought against the people of the North because I believed they were seeking to wrest from the South its dearest rights. But I have never cherished toward them bitter or vindictive feelings, and I have never seen the day when I did not pray for them." Robert E. Lee
