Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bradley Clampitt's The Confederate Heartland examines morale in the Civil War's western theater -- the region that witnessed the most consistent Union success and Confederate failure and the battle ground where many historians contend that the war was won and lost. Clampitt's sweeping vision of the Confederate heartland and assessment of morale, nationalism, and Confederate identity with a western emphasis, fashions a more balanced historical landscape for Civil War studies.
