Topsy-turvy : how the Civil War turned the world upside down for southern children

In Topsy-Turvy, Anya Jabour brings into sharp relief the way in which gender, race, slavery, and status shaped the lives of children in the American South before, during, and after the Civil War. She argues persuasively that the identities children developed in the antebellum era shaped their responses to the upheavals of the war years and their lives after the war's conclusion.

  • "This book presents the Civil War as a major turning point in Southern children's lives, and also illuminates the interplay between continuity and change in the history of the American South. Because the war was fought largely on Southern soil, parts of the region became a permanent landscape of war, and children in the Confederacy thus experienced the struggle in an especially profound way."
