Published in 2021, “Slavery and Freedom in the Shenandoah Valley During the Civil War Era” examines the complexities of life for African Americans in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley from the antebellum period through Reconstruction, showing how enslaved and free Blacks resisted slavery and supported the Union war effort in a borderland that changed hands frequently during the Civil War.
