leaves the battlefields of Bosnia and the Middle East for a

peaceful corner of the Blue Ridge Mountains, he thinks he's put war

zones behind him. But awakened one morning by the crackle of musket

fire, Horwitz starts filing front-line dispatches again this time

from a war close to home, and to his own heart. Propelled by his

boyhood passion for the Civil War, Horwitz embarks on a search for

places and people still held in thrall by America's greatest

conflict. The result is an adventure into the soul of the

unvanquished South, where the ghosts of the Lost Cause are

resurrected through ritual and remembrance. In Virginia, Horwitz

joins a band of 'hardcore' reenactors who crash-diet to achieve the

hollow-eyed look of starved Confederates; in Kentucky, he witnesses

Klan rallies and calls for race war sparked by the killing of a

white man who brandishes a rebel flag; at Andersonville, he finds

that the prison's commander, executed as a war criminal, is now

exalted as a martyr and hero; and in the book's climax, Horwitz

takes a marathon trek from Antietam to Gettysburg to Appomattox in

the company of Robert Lee Hodge, an eccentric pilgrim who dubs

their odyssey the 'Civil Wargasm.' Written with Horwitz's signature

blend of humor, history, and hard-nosed journalism, Confederates in

the Attic brings alive old battlefields and new ones 'classrooms,

courts, country bars' where the past and the present collide, often

in explosive ways. Poignant and picaresque, haunting and hilarious,

it speaks to anyone who has ever felt drawn to the mythic South and

to the dark romance of the Civil War.

像大多数读着《飘》长大的初次到访者一样，我认为谢尔曼和他挥舞着火把的士兵们应对亚特兰大枯燥乏味的现代性负主要责任。这种观念也根植于城市的自我形象之中。亚特兰大把凤凰作为自己的象征；城市的座右铭是“涅槃”。但第二天，在亚特兰大历史中心，我得知现代城市并不是从内战的灰烬中崛起的。“亚特兰大人铲平的亚特兰大地区要比谢尔曼铲平的多得多。”亚特兰大最杰出的历史学家富兰克林·加勒特（Franklin Garrett）说。

虽然加勒特对失去如此多的历史感到痛心，但他也认为这种破坏反映了这座城市的基本特征。“亚特兰大一直在向前走，”他说，“它从来都不像萨凡纳或查尔斯顿似的，是个花前月下的城市。它总是有一种更像瑞德·巴特勒的态度，而不是艾希礼·威尔克斯的那种。”

书籍介绍

When prize-winning war correspondent Tony Horwitz leaves the battlefields of Bosnia and the Middle East for a peaceful corner of the Blue Ridge Mountains, he thinks he's put war zones behind him. But awakened one morning by the crackle of musket fire, Horwitz starts filing front-line dispatches again this time from a war close to home, and to his own heart. Propelled by his boyhood passion for the Civil War, Horwitz embarks on a search for places and people still held in thrall by America's greatest conflict. The result is an adventure into the soul of the unvanquished South, where the ghosts of the Lost Cause are resurrected through ritual and remembrance. In Virginia, Horwitz joins a band of 'hardcore' reenactors who crash-diet to achieve the hollow-eyed look of starved Confederates; in Kentucky, he witnesses Klan rallies and calls for race war sparked by the killing of a white man who brandishes a rebel flag; at Andersonville, he finds that the prison's commander, executed as a war criminal, is now exalted as a martyr and hero; and in the book's climax, Horwitz takes a marathon trek from Antietam to Gettysburg to Appomattox in the company of Robert Lee Hodge, an eccentric pilgrim who dubs their odyssey the 'Civil Wargasm.' Written with Horwitz's signature blend of humor, history, and hard-nosed journalism, Confederates in the Attic brings alive old battlefields and new ones 'classrooms, courts, country bars' where the past and the present collide, often in explosive ways. Poignant and picaresque, haunting and hilarious, it speaks to anyone who has ever felt drawn to the mythic South and to the dark romance of the Civil War.
