New York: The Macmillan Company, 1924. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. Good/No DJ present. ix, [5], 367, [3] pages. Footnotes. Index. Some cover wear and page soiling noted. The first thirteen chapters of this volume were presented for a Doctor's dissertation at the University of Chicago.

Although he credits Confederate conscription with a high degree of success, he blames it for causing dissension between state and national officials and for creating bureaucratic problems of colossal proportions.
