In the end, the authors find that the South lacked the will to win, that weak Confederate nationalism and the strength of a peculiar brand of evangelical Protestantism sapped the South's ability to continue a war that was not yet lost on the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eProduct image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Georgia Press, 1991","offers":[{"title":"Why the South Lost the Civil War \/ Very Good","offer_id":53375511527716,"sku":"9780820313962VG","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/public_5943bd88-3305-4153-a590-a7eba3a18032.jpg?v=1779988334","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9780820313962","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
