A Savage Conflict is the first work to treat guerrilla warfare as critical to understanding the course and outcome of the Civil War. Daniel Sutherland argues that irregular warfare took a large toll on the Confederate war effort by weakening support for state and national governments and diminishing the trust citizens had in their officials to protect them.Civil War America.Guerrilla warfareUnited StatesHistory19th centuryGuerrilla warfareConfederate States of AmericaGuerrillasUnited StatesHistory19th centuryGuerrillasConfederate States of AmericaUnited StatesHistoryCivil War, 1861-1865Underground movementsGuerrilla warfareHistoryGuerrilla warfareGuerrillasHistoryGuerrillas973.7/3013Sutherland Daniel E1096611MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778445603321A savage conflict3745186UNINA
