Historians are only beginning to address the religious as a facet of the Civil War. In an organization created to destroy the enemy, chaplains ate, drank, and slept dissonance.

The reflections of these men of the cloth, who were underfed, underpaid, and largely unappreciated, have much to teach modern readers. They had to find, above all, the faith and perseverance to sustain the spirit of their people during the greatest war ever fought on this continent.
