{"product_id":"9781009550499","title":"Carolinian Crucible : Reforging Class, Family, and Nation in Confederate South Carolina (Cambridge Studies on the American South)","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarolinian Crucible tells the story of South Carolina - particularly its upcountry region - at war. A state notorious for its political radicalism before the Civil War, this book avoids caricaturing the Palmetto State's inhabitants as unflinching Confederate zealots, and instead provides a more fine-grained appraisal of their relationship with the new nation that their state's political elite played a leading role in birthing. It does so by considering the outlook and actions of both civilians and soldiers, with special attention given to those who were lower-class 'common whites.' In this richly detailed account, Patrick J. Doyle reveals how a region that was insulated from Federal invasion was not insulated from the disruptions of war; how social class profoundly shaped the worldview of ordinary folk, yet did not lead to a rejection of the slaveholders' republic; and how people in the Civil War South forged meaningful bonds with the Confederate nation, but buckled at times under the demands of diehard nationalism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52290816999735,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":704.34,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3548\/7543\/files\/9781009550499-1.jpg?v=1783135476","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9781009550499","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
