Abstract In the spring of 1862, Union forces marched into neighboring Carteret and Craven Counties in southeastern North Carolina, marking the beginning of an occupation that would continue for the rest of the war. Focusing on a wartime community with divided allegiances, Judkin Browning offers new insights into the effects of war on southerners and the nature of civil-military relations under long-term occupation, especially coastal residents' negotiations with their occupiers and each other as they forged new social, cultural, and political identities.Unlike citizens in the core areas of the Confederacy, many white residents in eastern North Carolina had a strong streak of prewar Unionism and appeared to welcome the Union soldiers when they first arrived. By 1865, however, many of these residents would alter their allegiance, developing a strong sense of southern nationalism. African Americans in the region, on the other hand, utilized the presence of Union soldiers to empower themselves, as they gained their freedom in the face of white hostility. Browning's study ultimately tells the story of Americans trying to define their roles, with varying degrees of success and failure, in a reconfigured country.

In the spring of 1862, Union forces marched into neighbouring Carteret and Craven Counties in south-eastern North Carolina, marking the beginning of an occupation that would continue for the rest of the war. Focusing on a wartime community with divided allegiances, this book offers insights into the effects of war on southerners and the nature of civil-military relations under long-term occupation, especially coastal residents' negotiations with their occupiers and each other as they forged new social, cultural, and political identities.

Large parts of eastern North Carolina were occupied by the Union almost from the beginning of the war. As thousands of northern soldiers, government officials, teachers, and missionaries arrived in eastern North Carolina in the spring of 1862, local residents were forced to consider the realities of living under military occupation, and in many cases they had to negotiate new social, cultural, and political arrangements with their military occupiers. This study of the complications of wartime occupation in coastal North Carolina (specifically in Carteret and Craven counties) during the Civil War explores how civilians of the region reconsidered their ties when confronted with living under Union control. Unlike citizens of most other parts of the South, residents of eastern North Carolina were not firmly tied to the Confederacy, and for a variety of reasons they had shifted their allegiances between North and South in the years leading up to the war. As Browning finds in this study, this makes for an interesting look at the way military soldiers and local residents, whites and freedpeople, men and women, all actively participated in the evolving society of their communities, seeking out changes that best-suited their interests in wartime and looking to the postwar era.
