The Homecoming of Heroes and Cowards -- 7. Slaves Become Freemen -- 8. Learning from the Past -- Appendix. Records and Collection Methods.Heroes and Cowards demonstrates the role that social capital plays in people's decisions. The makeup of various companies--whether soldiers were of the same ethnicity, age, and occupation--influenced whether soldiers remained loyal or whether they deserted. Costa and Kahn discuss how the soldiers benefited from friendships, what social factors allowed some to survive the POW camps while others died, and how punishments meted out for breaking codes of conduct affected men after the war. The book also examines the experience of African-American soldiers and makes important observations about how their comrades shaped their lives. --from publisher description.NBER series on long-term factors in economic development.Heroes and cowardsSoldiersUnited StatesBiographyAfrican American soldiersBiographyCultural pluralismUnited StatesCase studiesCommunity lifeUnited StatesCase studiesSocial networksUnited StatesCase studiesUnited StatesHistoryCivil War, 1861-1865Social aspectsUnited StatesHistoryCivil War, 1861-1865Psychological aspectsUnited StatesSocial conditionsTo 1865SoldiersAfrican American soldiersCultural pluralismCommunity lifeSocial networks973.7/1Costa Dora L1796079Kahn Matthew E.1966-1219470MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910973459003321Heroes & cowards4337661UNINA
