Yankee Town, Southern City: Race and Class Relations in Civil War Lynchburg: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Yankee Town, Southern City: Race and Class Relations in Civil War Lynchburg" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

One of the most hotly debated issues in the historical study of race relations is the question of how the Civil War and Reconstruction affected social relations in the South. Did the War leave class and race hierarchies intact? Or did it mark the profound disruption of a long-standing social order?
Yankee Town, Southern City examines how the members of the southern community of Lynchburg, Virginia experienced four distinct but overlapping events--Secession, Civil War, Black Emancipation, and Reconstruction. By looking at life in the grog shop, at the military encampment, on the street corner, and on the shop floor, Steven Elliott Tripp illustrates the way in which ordinary people influenced the contours of race and class relations in their town.

Acknowledgments
It is with a mix of relief and pleasure that I finally have an opportunity to thank those who have helped me see this project through to its completion. I am grateful to the staffs at the National Archives in Washington, D.C., the Alderman Library at the University of Virginia, the Perkins Library at Duke University, the Southern Historical Collection at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the Virginia Historical Society in Richmond, and the Virginia State Archives in Richmond.
Many people in Lynchburg helped make my frequent visits productive. Without exception, churches, private libraries, and private organizations allowed me to examine their records in full and to use what I thought relevant. Most of my research was conducted at Jones Memorial Library, the Lynchburg city clerks office, and the Lynchburg Museum. Each offered me a place to work and all the attention that I needed. I am especially grateful to Patt Hobbs and Adam Scher of the Lynchburg Museum System and Sarah Hickson and Ed Gibson of Jones Library.
