It’s become impossible to survey the field in my Civil War seminar. I’m providing a list of
readings that I think could be helpful in advancing students’ knowledge of the full scope of the
field, grouped in very loose general categories. This is just a starting point, and not an effort to
define a clear “canon” or to exclude important work: apologies in advance if your research, or
favored style of work, is not adequately represented. I hope it’s useful, and I’ll try to sporadically
update it, though the formatting errors will remain. For criminal conflict, see my colleague Ben
Lessing’s syllabi.
