HIS 364 - The Experience of the American Civil War


3 credit(s)
Area/Group Designation: American History
This course examines the central event in American history: the Civil War. Rather than focus on the war as strategy, tactics, and battles, the course treats the context and course of the war, its causes and consequences. Students use documentary and secondary sources to understand how all Americans – slave and free, women and men, blacks and whites, Northerners and Southerners, combatants and civilians – experienced and struggled to understand our greatest and deadliest conflict.
