Mountain rebels

"A bastion of Union support during the Civil War, East Tennessee was also home to Confederate sympathizers who took up the Southern cause until the bitter end."--BOOK JACKET. "W. Todd Groce paints a clearer picture of the region's Confederates than has previously been available, examining why they chose secession over union and revealing why they have become so invisible to us today. Drawing extensively on primary sources - newspapers, diaries, government reports - Groce allows the voices of these mountain rebels finally to be heard."--BOOK JACKET. "Groce explains the economic forces and the family and political ties to the Deep South that motivated the East Tennessee Confederates reluctantly to join the fight for Southern independence."--BOOK JACKET.
