Product Information

Finalist for the 2011 Gilder Lehrman Lincoln Prize "A seminal work. . . . One of the best examples of new, sophisticated scholarship on the social history of Civil War soldiers." -- The Journal of Southern History "Will undoubtedly, and properly, be read as the latest word on the role of manhood in the internal dynamics of the Union army." -- Journal of the Civil War Era During the Civil War, the Union army appeared cohesive enough to withstand four years of grueling war against the Confederates and to claim victory in 1865. But fractiousness bubbled below the surface of the North's presumably united front. Internal fissures were rife within the Union army: class divisions, regional antagonisms, ideological differences, and conflicting personalities all distracted the army from quelling the Southern rebellion. In this highly original contribution to Civil War and gender history, Lorien Foote reveals that these internal battles were fought against the backdrop of manhood. Clashing ideals of manliness produced myriad conflicts, as when educated, refined, and wealthy officers ("gentlemen") found themselves commanding a hard-drinking group of fighters ("roughs")--a dynamic that often resulted in violence and even death. Based on extensive research into heretofore ignored primary sources, The Gentlemen and the Roughs uncovers holes in our understanding of the men who fought the Civil War and the society that produced them.

Reviews
"From hazing with mule urine to pistols at ten paces, Foote provides a lively portrait of 'conduct unbecoming' and offers new insights into American masculinity in post-Civil War America." - Catherine Clinton, author of Mrs. Lincoln: A Life, ( "Valuable as an undergraduate text, as a guidebook for those curious about the Society but with only a distant knowledge of its workings, and as a reference for Jesuit novices who are unlikely to know much about the history of the organization they are joining. . . . Popular history for grown-ups. . . . A page turner." )-( American Catholic Studies ),(), "This book is one of the best examples of new, sophisticated scholarship on the social history of Civil War soldiers." -Anne J. Bailey, The Journal of Southern History, ( "Lorien Foote inThe Gentlemen and the Roughsprovides a fascinating perspective on the pervasive issues of manhood and honor that served to undermine the cohesion of the Union army . . . Her research, which looks at the social history of military relationships, is invaluable to broadening our overall undertanding of the American Civil War." )-(Ryan Keating),( Register of the Kentucky Historical Society ), "Lorien Foote's new book is another innovative attempt to rewrite American military history using the methodology of social history." -Jonathan D. Sarris, American Historical Review, "This might be the first 'military history' to take gender seriously, as well as the first gender history to accord military history its due." - Amy S. Greenberg, author ofManifest Manhood and the Antebellum American Empire, "A much as the Union army was at war with Confederate troops, according to Foote, it was also simultaneously internally at was along fault lines created by changing ideas of what it meant to be a man in a rapidly modernizing northern economy and social order. . . This book will undoubtedly, and properly, be read as the latest word on the role of manhood in the internal dynamics of the Union army." -Leeann Whites, Journal of the Civil War Era, "From hazing with mule urine to pistols at ten paces, Foote provides a lively portrait of 'conduct unbecoming' and offers new insights into American masculinity in post-Civil War America." -Catherine Clinton,author of Mrs. Lincoln: A Life, It is commonplace to observe that war is the ultimate test of the 'manhood' of soldiers. But in the Civil War-as probably in all wars-the meaning of manhood was contested, as Lorien Foote makes clear in this fine study of Union soldiers. Making intelligent use of regimental reports and court-martial records, among other kinds of evidence, she teases out the various perceptions of manhood in this study that offers stimulating new interpretations of the values of soldiers in the broader context of American Victorian culture., "Lorien Foote in The Gentlemen and the Roughs provides a fascinating perspective on the pervasive issues of manhood and honor that served to undermine the cohesion of the Union army . . .

Amy S. Greenberg, author of Manifest Manhood and the Antebellum American Empire, "Foote's monograph is complex and well written, and focuses the lens of gender and manhood studies on the Civil War North . . . Manditory reading for any scholar of 19th-century masculinity." -A.R.

Her research, which looks at the social history of military relationships, is invaluable to broadening our overall undertanding of the American Civil War., ( "[Schroth] here offers a readable overview of the society, beginning in 1566 with the arrival of Portuguese Jesuits off the coast of Florida and covering both the heroic positives and frank negatives of its presence and influences in mission, education, and social justice. . . . This book fills a gap in general works on the subject." )-( Library Journal ),(), "It is commonplace to observe that war is the ultimate test of the 'manhood' of soldiers.

Wilson, Journal of American History, "Foote is to be commended for drawing attention to the much-neglected 'roughs,' and for offering a means by which to study their behavior...Foote has delivered a far more substantive presentation of this group than has heretofore existed...this is an important and provocative study."-Steve Tripp, The North Carolina Historical Review, "It is commonplace to observe that war is the ultimate test of the 'manhood' of soldiers.

Greenberg,author of Manifest Manhood and the Antebellum American Empire, ( "We are offered rewarding discussions of Jesuit's engagement with the abolitionist debate, their role in the CIvil War, tales of such Jesuit characters as Arnold Damen and measured reportage of many of the controversies that engulfed the order." )-( America: The National Catholic Weekly ),(), "Foote reveals as much about the nature of the army and daily regimental life as she does about the competing concepts of manhood . . . This is a refreshing book that offers new ways of looking at the Union army, which overcame more than just the ineffectiveness of its generals and the skill of its Confederate opponents in order to preserve the nation intact." -Judkin Browning, H-Net Reviews, Foote's monograph is complex and well written, and focuses the lens of gender and manhood studies on the Civil War North . . . Manditory reading for any scholar of 19th-century masculinity., ( "Foote's monograph is complex and well written, and focuses the lens of gender and manhood studies on the Civil War North . . .
