Editorial Reviews

Review

This is the finest, most detailed, most commonsensical study of the Freedmen's Bureau in any state that has ever been written.

(Barry A. Crouch author of The Freedmen's Bureau and Black Texans)

A detailed narrative, gracefully and engagingly written . . . This excellent piece of scholarship belongs among the best recent studies of the Reconstruction era.

(History: Reviews of New Books)

Cimbala's in-depth look at the operations of the Freedmen's Bureau in Georgia provides a useful corrective to those inclined to judge the bureau harshly.

(Journal of American History)

Diligent primary source research, keen analysis, and a fine narrative style are blended here to produce the definitive work on the Bureau . . . in Georgia.

(Florida Historical Quarterly)

One of the most balanced, objective, and detailed studies available on the subject.

(North Carolina Historical Review)

Well-researched . . . A useful addition to Reconstruction scholarship.

(American Historical Review)

Cimbala gives us a valuable account of the workings of the Bureau on the local level in the agency's declining days.

(Journal of Southern History)

This is an excellent institutional history; indeed, it is the most detailed state study of the Freedman's Bureau to date.

(H-CivWar)
