More about the book

The book explores the complexities of sexual violence during the American Civil War, challenging the notion of it being a "low-rape" conflict. While official records suggest that rape was infrequent and harshly punished, the reality reveals a different narrative where few soldiers faced severe consequences for such crimes. It delves into the societal attitudes and legal frameworks of the time, highlighting the disparity between perception and reality regarding sexual violence in wartime.
