John Esten Cooke's novel of the Civil War is set in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and was one of the first fictionalized accounts used to promote the Myth of the Lost Cause. His romanticized version of the past twists, and sometimes even completely breaks, the historical facts in order to justify the South's rebellious acts of treason during the Civil War

This book is an innovative collection of original research which analyzes the many varieties of post-conflict masculinity. Exploring topics such as physical disability and psychological trauma, and masculinity and sexuality in relation to the "feminizing" contexts of wounding and desertion, this volume draws together leading academics in the fields of gender, history, literature, and disability studies, in an inter- and multi-disciplinary exploration of the conditions and circumstances that men face in the aftermath of war.
