As centuries turn and decades pass, many wars and major historical events fade into
the national memory as bold-face words in our history textbooks. However, the Civil
War is unique, in that it still remains a heavily discussed, published, and debated topic
in today's society. No other war has struck such a chord in our country's
consciousness, combining romantic notions of glory and chivalry with horrific images
of death and devastation, both of the landscape and its people.

But like most wars, the Civil War was a "rich man's war, but a poor man's fight." It is
the story of the common soldier's plight that is most engaging, for it is in those stories
in which one sees the true effects the war had on the people and time. The "Tar Heel
State" provided much of the manpower behind the Confederate armies and thus,
sacrificed many of its fathers and sons for the Confederate cause. An eclectic
scrapbook of sorts, Piedmont Soldiers and Their Families details, in word and image,
reveal the lives of some of those common solders and their families from Forsyth,
Stokes, Surry, Yadkin and Davidson Counties, allowing today's readers an opportunity
to explore the lives of their ancestors affected by the war.

Historian Cindy H. Casey has compiled a wonderful collection of rare Civil War-era
portraits, many never before published, with fascinating, personal details. This special
volume provides readers of all levels, whether the serious academic or the amateur
historian, a rare glimpse into the lives of those men and women who suffered and
endured one of the most dramatic events in our nation's history.

This publication was nominated for the Lincoln Award from
Gettysburg College in 2000.
