Analyses the court martial Colonel John B. Turchin, a Russian born Union officer, for "outrages” committed by his troops in Athens, Alabama. By examining the volunteers who made up his force, the colonel's trial, his subsequent promotion, the policy debate, and the public reaction to the outcome, the authors illuminate one of the most provocative questions in Civil War studies: how did policy set forth by President Lincoln evolve from one of conciliation to one of placing the burden of war on the civilian population of the South?
