- W2055987861 abstract "On July 1, 1861, 150 artillery, cavalry, and infantry companies from Virginia, comprising 42,000 men, were accepted into service with the newly established army of the Confederate States of America. Given Virginians' reluctant approach to secession, this display of support for the Confederacy would have been unlikely even three months earlier. The speed and completeness of Virginia's shift from pro-Union to pro-secession and the breadth and depth of Virginians' commitment to the Confederacy over the ensuing four years demands a clear accounting of what elements inspired this participation. The process and patterns of enlistment in the state offer a valuable perspective on the decisions that Virginians made in 1861 and beyond. Incentives for enlistment varied over the course of the war, of course, hinging on personal issues like family status and needs, local politics, the military course of the war, and the presence and behavior of Union troops in the state. Despite these variables, quantitative analysis of several important aspects of motivation—residence, politics, wealth, and slaveholding—can clarify some of the key questions that scholars have asked about the Civil War. Did men from the mountainous Allegheny region withhold support from the Confederacy? How did slaveholding affect men's decision to join the army? Was the Civil War a poor man's fight? The results of a quantitative approach generate valuable insights into aggregate patterns of support for the Confederacy or Union and also provide a context for understanding the decisions individuals made about where to direct their national loyalties. 1 [End Page 5]" @default.
