The conviction that the American Civil War left a massive legacy to the country has generally been much clearer than the definition of what that legacy is. Did the war, as Ulysses S. Grant believed, bequeath power, intelligence, and sectional harmony to America, or did it, as many have argued since, sow racial and regional bitterness that has blighted the nation since 1865? What, exactly, was the legacy of disunion?This collection explores that question from a variety of angles, showcasing the work of twelve scholars from the United States and the United Kingdom. The essays ponder the role of history, myth, and media in sustaining the memory of the war and its racial implications in the South; Abraham Lincolns legacy; and the wars consequences in less studied areas, such as civilmilitary relations, constitutional and legal history, and Americas ascent on the international stage. By juxtaposing American and nonAmerican interpretations, this stimulating volume sheds light on aspects of the wars legacy that from a purely American viewpoint are sometimes too close for comfort. Perhaps the greatest legacy of the Civil War is its ongoing debate and continuing fascination worldwide.

I expected more from this collection given its title. Some essays didn’t really add to my understanding of the Civil War. The layout wasn't great either, made it hard to follow some arguments. Not what I hoped for.

Interesting, But Some Repetitiveness
The book discusses some compelling themes about the Civil War, but I felt a few chapters overlapped too much. It’s still worth a read if you want to dive deep into American history, just keep in mind it might feel a bit redundant at times.
