Winfred B. Moore, Jr, Kyle S. Sinisi, and David H. White, Jr., editors. Warm Ashes: Issues in Southern History at the Dawn of the Twenty-First Century. Columbia: University of South Carolina Press. 2003. Pp. xi, 413. $49.95.

In April 2000, the Citadel Conference on the South convened in Charleston, South Carolina, with over a hundred scholars present. The result is this collection of essays, edited by Winfred B. Moore, Jr., Kyle S. Sinisi, and David H. White, Jr., with eighteen chapters, divided into seven parts. Part one, "Forward to the Past," begins the volume with an essay by Emory M. Thomas, who discusses the historiography of the Civil War and its scholarly future. Part two, "Enslaved," moves the reader from the slave trade in the late eighteenth century to antebellum widowed planters and women's responses to slave insurrections. Part three, "War and Southern Identity," presents three chapters that diverge between Missouri's southern identity, the rhetoric on the war by Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, and the language of violence during and after Reconstruction. Part four, "In the House of the Lord," seeks to engage both race and gender in the arena of religion as well as denominational reunions among Methodists and Presbyterians. Part five, "Along the Color Line," addresses neighborhood segregation in the Progressive era, desegregation at the University of North Carolina and the Citadel, and black military education in the South. Part six, "Of Memory and Memorials," spotlights the politics of southern memory from a black perspective and discusses the creation of civil rights museums in four southern cities. The final part seven, "Back to the Future," features a single essay by Sheldon Hackney on the ambivalent South.
