Behind Enemy Lines: Civil War Spies, Raiders, and Guerrillas - Paperback

by Wilmer L. Jones (Author)

Behind Enemy Lines provides a new perspective on the familiar aspects of Civil War history, including shadowy agents, women using their feminine wiles, and vengeful crusades. Popular historian Wilmer L. Jones reveals that, by subverting the methods of traditional warfare, small and sometimes unorganized groups as well as intrepid spies, daring raiders, and mutinous guerrillas turned the tide of the Civil War far from the fronts of the now-legendary battlefields.
