Focusing on the US Civil War, this book looks at how it played havoc with people's perception and use of time. A crucial juncture on the US path to an ordered relationship to time, the book argues that the war had an acute effect on the nation's progress toward a modernity marked by multiple, interpenetrating times largely based on the clock.
