The Day Dixie Died - The Occupied South, 1865-1866
Thomas Goodrich and Debra
Goodrich
As the North celebrated the
end of the Civil War, the people of the South, particularly of recently fallen
Richmond
, mourned. The South was about to enter a period of extreme turmoil
reconstruction. The
Union, though
preserved, would not easily be healed. Starting with Lincoln's assassination
and continuing up through the harsh realities of occupation through the summer
of 1866, authors Thomas and Debra Goodrich trace the history of reconstruction
in the south-the death, destruction, crime, starvation, exile, and anarchy
that pervaded those grim years.
