In The Confederate Carpetbaggers, Daniel E. Sutherland examines the lives of southern men and women who moved north in search of opportunity in the aftermath of the Civil War. As he considers their various motives for moving north, problems of adaptation to northern society, attempts to find new identities, and 'efforts to maintain relations with other Confederates in the North as well as with old friends in the South, Sutherland provides an illuminating account of the contributions these displaced southerners made to the life of the nation.
