Everyday War provides an accessible lens through which to understand what noncombatant civilians go through in a country at war. 

What goes through the mind of a mother who must send her child to school across a minefield or the men who belong to groups of volunteer body collectors? In Ukraine, such questions have been part of the daily calculus of life. Greta Uehling engages with the lives of ordinary people living in and around the armed conflict over Donbas that began in 2014 and shows how conventional understandings of war are incomplete.

In Ukraine, landscapes filled with death and destruction prompted attentiveness to human vulnerabilities and the cultivation of everyday, interpersonal peace. Uehling explores a constellation of social practices where ethics of care were in operation. People were also drawn into the conflict in an everyday form of war that included provisioning fighters with military equipment they purchased themselves, smuggling insulin, and cutting ties to former friends. Each chapter considers a different site where care can produce interpersonal peace or its antipode, everyday war.

Bridging the fields of political geography, international relations, peace and conflict studies, and anthropology, Everyday War considers where peace can be cultivated at an everyday level.

"Greta Uehling sensitively, and with nuance, highlights the often-misunderstood early stages of the war in Ukraine and the toll it has taken on its people. In her exploration of the Ukrainian conflict and thoughtful consideration of contextually complex language and culture, she brings many universal struggles to light." -- Maureen P. Flaherty, University of Manitoba, author of Peacebuilding with Women in Ukraine 

Greta Uehling teaches for the Program in International and Comparative Studies at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan where she is affiliated with the Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies.

Alligator Creek by Lottie Guttry Book Spotlight and Q&A!

ALLIGATOR CREEK

FICTION/HISTORICAL |ISBN: 978-1-61254-241-6 HC $18.95 |

http://alligatorcreekbook.com/

Author Lottie Guttry brings to life what Americans faced during the Civil War, exploring the effects of war, a family’s story, and 19th Century lifestyles in Alligator Creek. Guttry combines the stories of her own ancestors, Sarah and Alex Browning, and years of research to enlighten readers about what life was like during that period of civil unrest when brother fought against brother.

“This compelling novel is the product of impressive research. It illuminates the everyday lives of Civil War soldiers as well as the families who were left at home. The plot unfolds with great realism. Guttry shows that wartime did not always produce clean narratives and happy endings. Instead, it was messy and unpredictable,” said Sean McMahon, Florida Gateway College professor of history.

Based on a true family story and documented history, Alligator Creek presents strong characters, who survived the unique and difficult period of the American Civil War. Sarah and Alex Browning lived in Lake City, Florida, during the 1860’s, and Alex’s recorded military service includes many of the most famous battles between the Generals Grant and Lee.

During her research for the book, Guttry discovered that the struggles and realities of war are timeless. She realized that even with modern advancements in weaponry and war strategy, the personal challenges faced by military and their spouses have not really changed much since that pivotal time.

“It is tragic and yet fascinating to learn that those who fought in the Civil War and the family members left behind share striking similarities in experiences, even though the time periods are more than 100 years apart,” said Guttry. “During the Civil War, soldiers faced post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), yet there was no formal name for it. The similarities also reached into extreme war conditions, guilt, loneliness, and families torn apart. Many soldiers who return home from the battlefield face personal battles to find comfort in their normal lives. Additionally, Guttry writes about the struggles of families left behind, making their way without their spouses and with the unending fear that their men may never return.

According to Guttry, the many adversities to overcome by those in the Civil War, and those who had family members in the war were a great inspiration to sharing her family’s story in conjunction with her research. “My dearest dream is that the readers will love my characters and find inspiration in their courage, faith, and hope during one of American’s most challenging times to thrive, fight a war, and raise a family” said Guttry.

Lottie Lipscomb Guttry grew up in the small town of Kilgore, Texas, the site of the famous East Texas Oil Field. She attended Sweet Briar College in Virginia and received a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of Texas at Austin, a Master of Arts from Stephen F. Austin College in Nacogdoches, Texas, and a doctorate from Texas A&M University at Commerce. She served as instructor of literature and composition at Kilgore College. She also taught advanced composition, literature, and advanced grammar at the University of Texas at Tyler. She owned and directed Sylvan Learning Center in Longview. During her studies at Stephen F. Austin State University, a professor assigned her class to find and write a family legend. A cousin introduced Lottie to Sarah and Alexander Browning and their story—the basis for her historical novel Alligator Creek. Other publications include a musical, Boom, based on the history of the East Texas Oil Field; a play for children, The Enchanted Swan; a critical article published in the Walt Whitman Review; two devotionals published in The Upper Room; and numerous feature articles for The Longview News and Journal.

Lottie and her husband John, a retired dentist, live in Longview, Texas, near Kilgore, where they both grew up. She participates in the music program at her church, serves as a hospital volunteer, plays duplicate bridge, and travels. She has three grown children and seven grandchildren.

Q&A

What inspired you to write this book?

I learned of a compelling family story about my ancestors, Sarah and Alexander Browning, who lived in Florida during the Civil War. I thought about this story for several years, especially Sarah’s inspiring strength and bravery. In 2004 I finally sat down at my computer and began to expand the story into the historical fiction novel, Alligator Creek.

How much research went into writing Alligator Creek?

I read numerous books before I even started writing. As I wrote, I constantly searched the Internet for information. Without research, a twenty-first century author could not write authentically about people who lived in the nineteenth century. Not only did I study battle plans and historical events in the Civil War Period, I discovered what they ate, what their houses looked like, what they wore, what their opinions were, what their customs were, what words they used then that we no longer use now, what words we do use now that they did not use then. I enjoy research, so it was a pleasant task. I found some wonderful out-of-print books at the UT Austin library.

What do you hope that readers walk away with by reading your book?

My dearest hope is that the readers will love my characters and find inspiration in their courage, faith, and hope during one of American’s most challenging times to thrive, fight a war, and raise a family.

What is the significance of the title Alligator Creek?

A creek plays a critical role in the original family story, and the word alligator suggests an element of danger and a connection with Florida. Also, Lake City, the town where Sarah and Alexander Browning lived, was originally called Alligator. The name was changed to Lake City only a few years before the Brownings moved there. I named the creek that runs through their farm Alligator Creek, which is also the name of their farm.

How much of this book is factual history, your personal family history, and why was it important to you to research this time period for the book?

I could write the family story in two or three pages. The story needed to be expanded and detailed to make the characters and the time period come to life. Through research I immersed myself in the period, so I could create dialogue for people who lived without technology, without electricity, and without automobiles. I came upon an interesting cross section of the actual family story and historical research when I discovered online scanned documents of Alexander Browning’s letters to the Florida Board of Pensions. I quoted frequently from those letters.
In the book, Alex Browning comes away from the war with post-traumatic stress disorder. Was PTSD a major issue during the Civil War?

The original family story relates that Alex did not come home after the war and never explained why. PTSD would be a logical reason and believable as a result of his horrendous experiences. When I’d almost finished the book, I discovered Eric T. Dean ‘s book. Shook Over Hell: Post Traumatic Stress, Vietnam and the Civil War, written in 1997. Dean studied cases of PTSD from the Vietnam War and records of former Civil War soldiers in several hospitals. In the nineteenth century it was called “soldier’s heart” or “irritated heart.” I am not sure how prevalent PTSD was in the Civil War, but logic tells us that if soldiers from Vietnam, World Wars 1 and 2 suffered from “shell-shock” or PTSD as a result of war experiences, that it would have occurred just as frequently during and after the brutal Civil War.

In the book, Sarah Browning deals with the stresses of having a husband at war. What can wives who have husbands overseas take away from Sarah’s experiences?

Sarah kept her days structured and busy, caring for her children and finding ways to make money— canning, sewing, and teaching. She also accepted help from family members and trained her children to help with chores. Each morning she read scriptures and poetry. She released her anxieties by writing letters and journals. Most of all, she depended on her strong Christian faith for courage and comfort.

Race relations and slavery obviously dominated the American political landscape in the nineteenth century, as is evidenced in the book. How are race relations today different from that time period? What should readers know?

Although many in the South insisted that the Civil War was an act of Yankee aggression, it was a war about slavery. Slave owners considered their slaves to be property. Many refused to see African Americans as human beings after the war. The reconstruction with its lynching’s and beatings kept black freedmen in terror of white people. During my lifetime I have observed growth of a more accepting attitude in society toward minorities. I am hopeful that the future will bring further improvement in race relations.

What was the biggest challenge you faced while writing Alligator Creek?

I think plotting and character development were my biggest challenges. The bigger-than-life events in the family story obviously required bigger-than life-characters. Making unbelievable events appear reasonable required a lot of thought and rewriting.

What can the reader learn from reading Alligator Creek?

Readers will learn what it was like to be a soldier or a mother during the 1860’s and many details of the time period. Alligator Creek’s heroine examines the prejudices and restrictive attitudes of her society and has the ability to see both sides of the controversy. I hope my readers may examine prejudices in our society through eyes of compassion.

ELIZABETH’S WAR BY D.L. ROGERS

Publication Date: June 1, 2013
Paperback, AudioBook, & eBook

Genre: Historical Fiction 

Read the complete first chapter here.

 In a time when raiders, bushwhackers, and Redlegs rode the Cass County, Missouri, countryside bringing fear and destruction with them, Elizabeth Miers and her family barely survived into the next day. When the enemy, in the form of Elizabeth’s neighbors, comes a-calling more than once with mischief on their minds, Elizabeth fights back to keep her children safe against men she once called friends.

On August 25, 1863, following the issuance of General Order No. 11 by Union General Thomas Ewing, thousands of women, children, and the elderly were forced to vacate their homes in the brutal summer heat within fifteen days. With determination and a plan, Elizabeth sets out on a sixty-mile trek toward St. Clair County. Carrying enough prepared food and water on a rickety built sled to reach her aunt and uncle’s farm, she prays her kin are there to welcome them, not knowing whether they lived through the burning of Osceola two years prior—or not.

Facing more than just the lack of food and shelter and the unbearable heat, they’re set upon by raiders and foraging soldiers who try to take more than just their meager provisions. Much more. Left with little after their supplies are stolen and their property destroyed, Elizabeth and her fellow travelers continue south, facing more indignities before their journey is done.

Through Elizabeth and the thousands of other refugees that traveled ahead of and behind her, feel what they felt in the wake of General Order No. 11, an order that took everything and left them destitute and afraid they wouldn’t live to see one more day.

CROSSFIRE IN THE STREET BY D.L. ROGERS

Publication Date: June 7, 2018
Paperback & eBook

Genre: Historical Fiction

Read the first two chapters here.

The Civil War yielded many bloody battles and the Battle at Lone Jack was among the worst. Fought across a sixty-foot strip of dusty road, brothers fought brothers, neighbors fought neighbors, cousins fought cousins, and the blood of horses and men ran together in the street under the blistering August sun.

The Green family tried to keep from being caught up in the war headed for their doorstep, but their efforts were lost—even before the Yankees came to town.

In their youthful exuberance and ignorance, sixteen and fifteen year old Hank and Jesse sneak into town to watch the battle—and find more trouble than they bargained for. Pete, the oldest brother, joins the Rebels and fights to save his life—and that of his brothers. Cora, the oldest daughter on the cusp of becoming a woman, loves a boy who runs off to fight with the Federals—and breaks her heart.

About the Author

Although born in New Jersey of parents from New Jersey and Tennessee, it was just a matter of time before Diane’s “southern” blood revealed itself. And reveal itself it did, in a passion for all things western and related to the Civil War. Having learned a great deal in her research since her historical journey began, especially in the midwest, Diane has attempted to portray both the west and the war from numerous points-of-view, which is not always the same history as what has been previously portrayed–or taught.

As a kid, Diane played Cowboys and Indians more than she did Barbie, and as she got older, she and her cousin (whose parents were reversed) gave themselves the moniker of “Yebels.” The question of what it would have been like during the Civil War years, when friends and family fought on opposite sides of the war, festered inside Diane until she answered her own question in the form of the novels she writes of the west and Civil War, where everyday people, regardless of what “side” they were on, when faced with difficult situations, rose to the challenge, and survived.

Now living south of Kansas City, Missouri, on fourteen acres of property, when Diane’s not writing or marketing, she enjoys sitting on her front porch, reading when she can or just watching her horses in the pasture and multitude of cats in the yard. When she does venture into town, it’s to work at a lawfirm on the Plaza, or visit her two children and five grandchildren.

Description Keeping the Lights On for Ike by Rebecca Daniels

Daily Life of a Utilities Engineer at AFHQ in Europe During WWII; or, What to Say in Letters Home When You're Not Allowed to Write about the War Most people don’t realize that during the war in Europe in the 1940s, it took an average of six support soldiers to make the work of four combat soldiers possible. Most of what’s available in the literature tends toward combat narratives, and yet the support soldiers had complex and unique experiences as well. This book is based on personal correspondence, and it is primarily a memoir that creates a picture of the day-to-day realities of an individual soldier told in his own words [as much as he could tell under the wartime rules of censorship, that is] as well as giving insight into what it was actually like to be an American soldier during WWII. It explores the experiences of a non-combat Army utilities engineer working in a combat zone during the war in Europe and takes the protagonist from basic training through various overseas assignments—in this case to England, North Africa, and Italy as a support soldier under Eisenhower and his successors at Allied Force Headquarters. It also includes some reflections about his life after returning to Oregon when the war was over. The soldier involved is Captain Harold Alec Daniels [OSU, Class of 1939, ROTC] and most of the letters were written to his wife, Mary Daniels [attended U of O in the late 1930s]. They are the author's parents, and she inherited the letter collection, photos, and all other primary source materials after her mother’s death in 2006.

Praise Keeping the Lights On for Ike by Rebecca Daniels

“The book moves swiftly along, while at the same time capturing the frustration of their prolonged separation. The historical timeline provides just the right bit of historical context to these war years behind at the tail of the army. This is not the typical WWII combat book.”- The Montague Reporter

“The lack of military detail — the focus on everyday life and on the relationship between Alec and Mary — ends up being one of the book’s greatest assets. Many works of history detail the story of great battles. Fewer dwell on individual wartime experiences.  The book is also strengthened by the affection expressed in Alec’s relatively inarticulate yet moving letters to his wife on the home front.”- Tinky Weisblat, Greenfield Recorder, author of “The Pudding Hollow Cookbook,” “Pulling Taffy,” and “Love, Laughter, and Rhubarb”

“Carefully researched history and a beautiful remembrance of one soldier’s letters home. A poignant and personal look into the lives of two very private people and an extraordinary first hand example of why it’s called the Greatest Generation. In detail and in truly first class research one is left with the sense that they know these two people very well. Not only is this a well written historical account of World War II, it is a touching and gentle love story from a remarkable author with a most deft touch and turn. Got five stars from me. So worth it.”-W. Richards, Amazon

“This book made me feel almost like I was right there with Alec and Mary as they experienced that time of their lives. My parents, being the same age, also had a similar experience and I thought of them as I read every word. The author cleverly brought to life their story and for that I shall be forever grateful.”- Sunbury Press Reader Review

Keeping the Lights On for Ike by Rebecca Daniels

Review by Sage Nor

I absolutely loved this memoir about love and war and I think that if you're reading this, you will too.  A little known fact about World War II is that for every four soldiers that were actually fighting on the front lines, there were another six full support troops made up of men with more specialized training to keep up the infrastructure and administration that war demands. It's not something we often think about, especially some eighty years later, when most of these things work with more automation. But back in 1941, just after the United States began fighting the war, many things still had to be done by human beings who were brought there for that purpose.

Rebecca Daniels writes about just such a person. Before he was drafted into the war, her father, Alec was an electrical engineer and a member of the ROTC. Because of this, he was sent to maintain the electrical systems on the war front and was kept under a strict code of silence as to his whereabouts. Though he could not talk much about what he did in his day-to-day work, Alec still wrote home frequently to his new wife, Mary. Mary kept these letters and cards for sixty years until her death and it is around these love letters that Daniels crafts her memoir.

This is a beautiful, fascinating and heart-pounding story and one that should not be missed. It's incredible to think that these were real people living under such extraordinary circumstances, but Daniels makes it seem as if you are hearing the story first hand as you read.

My biggest take away from this memoir is the amount of background work that went into the war effort that I had never really considered before. Alec seemed like a very intelligent man and his daughter carefully relates the details of his work, undiluted in a way that he was never allowed to during the war.

Excerpt from Chapter 13: 

Return to Naples and Caserta (July—September 1943)

It was in the summer of 1944 that he started to talk about the local swimming pool that was just across from where he worked, a pool he described as so cold that he jumped right out again the first time he went in, but he found it cooled him down for quite a while afterwards and made him think he might like to live somewhere that he could have a pool in his back yard, saying “it’s a lot of fun when the weather is hot, and it makes me feel a lot better than I have for a long time. It takes that tired feeling away” [September 2, 1944]. This was definitely not your average local swimming pool, though. While he never identified the pool by name, his photos included several images of soldiers swimming in pools and fountains on the grounds of Caserta palace, so his swimming pool was actually a huge and elegant water feature, designed by Luigi Vanvitelli as an integral part of the palace gardens, combining the tradition of the Italian Renaissance Garden with elements from the gardens at Versailles. All the pools, streams, and fountains at Caserta were fed by the Carolino Aqueduct, which was originally built in the mid 18th century to serve the water needs of not only the palace but also the city of Naples and all the farms in the surrounding area. The water originated from springs in the hills above Naples and the conduits were mostly underground, which would account for the chilly water Alec noticed. Alec’s swimming pool would have been the Peschiera Grande [literally, the large fish pond], a pool of water more than 1,500 feet long with the Fountain of the Three Dolphins at one end, from whose mouth came the mountain spring-fed water from the aqueduct. The network of pools and fountains also included a miniature mock castle and were originally used for naval war games for the young prince Ferdinand IV of the Bourbon dynasty. In fact, the fountains and waterways, complete with statuary on all levels, extended almost two miles up the natural hillside surrounding the palace gardens, and it would seem that centuries after those 18th century princely war games, they continued to provide recreational opportunities for many Allied soldiers awaiting their next real war assignments.

In early September Alec reported that, “Things have been moving so fast that they have started interrupting the radio programs to give us the latest flashes. Just a few moments ago they said we had crossed the Belgium border and we are almost to the German border. It sounds good for you and me, Mary; boy will I enjoy getting you in my arms after this is all over” [September 2, 1944]. In fact, things were progressing very quickly for the Allies in the Mediterranean and southern Europe. In the Mediterranean, the US Fifth Army launched an assault on September 8 against the Gothic Line north of Florence, Field Marshall Albert Kesselring’s last major line of Nazi defense in Italy. The British Eighth Army took Monte Altuzzo on September 17, San Marino on the nineteenth, Marradi on the twenty-fourth, and, as Julius Caesar had done in 49 BC, reaching the proverbial “point of no return” as they crossed the Rubicon in northeastern Italy on August 26. On September 2, Germans began to evacuate the Aegean Islands, on the twelfth they evacuated Rhodes and other Greek islands in the eastern Mediterranean, on the twenty-first they evacuated the Peloponnesian peninsula, and on September 27 they evacuated western Greece entirely.

In France, Patton’s troops took Verdun and the Canadians liberated Dieppe on September 1. On the second, the Allies crossed into Belgium, and on the third the British Second Army liberated Brussels. On September 9, General de Gaulle formed a provisional French government that included communists.  More victories in France include LeHavre on the twelfth and Calais on the thirtieth. On September 10 the first allied patrol crossed the German frontier near Aachen, the westernmost city in Germany on the border with Belgium and the Netherlands, and on the fifteenth the US First Army reached the Siegfried Line east of Aachen—a 392-mile long defensive line of bunkers, tunnels and tank traps, built between 1938-40 along the western border of the old German empire [the border with the Netherlands in the north, and Belgium, Luxembourg, France, and Switzerland in the south], but not used in combat until re-activated by Hitler in late August of 1944. On September 16, Paul Goebbels, Reich Minister of Propaganda for the Nazis, pushed all Germans to resist the Allied onslaught “with the utmost fanaticism,” but by the twenty-fourth, British troops had crossed the German border near the lower Rhine. Things were moving fast enough that even at AFHQ, they were having trouble keeping track of all the developments, especially since, as Alec reported, rumors were rampant:

We sure are hearing rumors about Germany flying around here thick and fast. If we could believe 1/10 of them, why I would be on my way home now, but then they are never confirmed and we have to wait for information from AFHQ, which is a laugh sometimes. For example, I heard a captain say they put a pin on their official war map because it was in the newssheet. The true reports do look very good for us, though [September 6, 1944].

Though the war was going well in the field, the utilities engineers at AFHQ were still faced with infrastructure challenges on a regular basis in both Naples and Caserta:

I got one of my big generators connected today and pushed the remote control button and it started up without a hitch, and then I threw the switch from city power to the generator and it worked like a charm. The only trouble is that it is too small and so it requires a person to operate it. If I could have gotten one large enough, I could have made it completely automatic and it would have started by itself when the power failed [September 6, 1944].

Clearly the good reports were doing wonders for his spirit as well, and he was especially pleased to report that he had received a package of candy and three letters from Mary, one of which held several photos that he treasured: “I received the picture of my luscious wif and the pictures of the farm, and my wif looks good enough for a full course meal and the farm a good place to enjoy the meal with all the trimmings of love” [September 4, 1944]. Little did he know then that in spite of the recent momentum in the fighting, it would be another year before he would be able to return home to his beloved.
