Ersatz in the Confederacy: Shortages and Substitutes on the Southern Homefront (Southern Classics Series)

Rating:
Summary: Easy reading for a dry subject.
Review: I love reading about Southerners during the Civil War and their lifestyles and this book filled a void. I was afraid it would be really hard to read and very clinical but Ms. Massey made the subject entertaining as well as enlightening. She has a great style for a history and social studies writer.
