Abstract
Anne J. Bailey and Daniel E. Sutherland are to be commended for compiling this collection of essays about lesser known aspects of the Civil War in Arkansas. Readers of the Arkansas Historical Quarterly, the publication of the Arkansas [End Page 349] Historical Association, will recognize most of these articles from past issues. However, for anyone not familiar with that journal, this volume will indeed be a treasure. As the title implies, the subjects of these writings avoid the major battles and leaders to discuss such topics as guerrilla warfare, the wartime image of Arkansas, the production of gunpowder, the Federal experiments with plantation management and military farm colonies, and atrocities against black soldiers fighting in the state. Overall, this book is a welcome addition to the limited but growing record of the Civil War in Arkansas and the trans-Mississippi.
