Citizens More Than Soldiers: The Kentucky Militia and Society in the Early RepublicU of Nebraska Press, 2007 M01 1 - 233 páginas Historians depict nineteenth-century militiamen as drunken buffoons who poked each other with cornstalk weapons, and inevitably shot their commander in the backside. This book demonstrates that, to the contrary, militia remained an active civil institution in early nineteenth century, affecting era's social, political, and economic transitions. |
