Harold S. Wilson. Confederate Industry: Manufacturers and Quartermasters in the Civil War. Jackson: University Press of Mississippi. 2002. Pp. xxii, 412. $45.00.

This book is an important addition to the emerging literature on early southern industrialization. Using extensive primary research, Harold S. Wilson simultaneously attempts to explain the perils and opportunities of engaging in industrial manufacturing in the South during the Civil War and to explain the evolution of the system of procuring war materiel by the Confederate government's Quartermaster Department. Although the mix of goals often obscures as much as it reveals, the richness of the research will make it required reading for serious students of the U.S. South, the Civil War, and industrialization for the foreseeable future.
