Binnington Publishes “Confederate Visions: Nationalism, Symbolism, and the Imagined South in the Civil War”

Associate Professor of History Ian Binnington published a book, Confederate Visions: Nationalism, Symbolism, and the Imagined South in the Civil War, with the University of Virginia Press in November. He argues that the creation of American national identity was fraught with struggle, political conflict, and bloody Civil War. Confederate Visions examines literature, newspapers and periodicals, visual imagery, and formal state documents to explore the origins and development of wartime Confederate nationalism.
