assignment 4 hrm 560

Discussion Question:  In Phillips's book, The Rivers Ran Backward, we see that the lines between North and South weren't always so clearly defined. Give two examples of conflicts within the border states that illustrate the diversity of thought within them. Discussion Question:  The physical border between the North and South was often just as difficult to determine as the ideological motivations of the two. Give an example of one of the middle ground policies that were proposed. Describe the treatment of those who tried to take a more moderate stance, or those who tried to stay neutral during the Civil War. 

Discussion Question: In Christopher Phillips work we see that tension and violence still existed long after the Civil War had ended. In the years after the war how were politics used to try and create a national dialogue, and how did the "South" try to manipulate the historical narrative of the Civil War?
