Kenneth Coleman's study of Athens, Georgia, during the Civil War focuses on what life was like for the 4,000 people living there. Despite the hardship and deprivation, life went on, heightened by the effects of war. Churches and schools remained the core of social life; women's groups continued to meet; parties and concerts added amusement to people's lives. But war did make drastic changes. People lost loved ones, and knew the hardship of living from day to day as prices soared and goods, once necessities, became unobtainable luxuries. Coleman weaves a broad and illuminating tapestry of a people who met a great challenge while managing to hold on to, for as long as possible, their peacetime ways.

The little-known story of Confederate troops who put on the Union's blue uniform to serve the North in the Civil War. Writer and researcher Al Hester, PhD, brings to life events which led 52 Athens-area Confederate soldiers to forsake the Confederate forces and swear allegiance to the Union. They changed their loyalty in order to gain freedom from northern prisons in the last two years of the Civil War. President Lincoln's policy allowed them to join Union forces in the West to fill the places of scarce regular army soldiers fighting Indians, escorting settlers and protecting trails and telegraph lines. Includes a gallery of 19th century photos and artwork to help tell this unusual story.

These Men She Gave tells the story of Athens, Georgia, during the turbulent years of the Civil War. John F. Stegeman details the many changes Athens and Clarke County underwent during the war. The community was highly involved with the seccession movement and the formation of the Confederacy. Stegeman tells how the town was able to escape destruction on an August day in 1864 when the Civil War came to the area and how the town would eventually lose many men to the war. The book includes appendices that include information such as a list of the members of the Ladies Aid Society in 1961, a roster of Clarke County companies in the army of Northern Virginia, and mortality lists of Clarke County troops in major battles.

In 1861, northeast Georgians were the driving force into secession and war. In 1865, Confederate president Jefferson Davis, his government collapsing and himself a wanted man, brought the reality of the war to the region's doorstep. Governor Joseph Brown, U.S. senator Robert Toombs and the politically influential Howell Cobb of Athens and his brother Thomas R.R. Cobb all fought passionately for Southern independence. The region epitomized the reasons for which the South waged and supported the war, yet it was spared the destruction seen in other places. Even Sherman's Union army touched only the region's fringes. Author Ray Chandler brings to light the final act of the Confederacy in the Peach State's northeast and the lasting impact it had on Georgians.

Excerpt from The Second Athenian Confederacy The scope of the following dissertation is, I hope, adequately explained in the Introduction. The subject was one of those set for the Thirlwall Prize of 1905, and it is in accordance with the regulations framed for the prize that the Essay is now published. A word of explanation as to the map may here be given. It is intended to illustrate the extent of the Confederacy at the time of its greatest prosperity. I have marked Thessaly as belonging to the Confederacy, since it is reasonable to believe that it was at the time almost completely under the influence of Jason of Pherae. The 'probable members' are so indicated on the ground that Athens as mistress of the Aegean would hardly fail to absorb its islands into her Confederacy.
