Summary:Sean A. Scott's A Visitation of God: Northern Civilians Interpret the Civil War is immediately notable for three reasons. First, it is an exceptional piece of research. The work of the historian of religion and war is physically and emotionally taxing, and Scott has paid his bills and, to all appearances, the bills of many others as well. In the process, he has given voice to people overlooked by other historians because of their social position, geography, gender, or civilian status.
