So much has been written about soldiers in battle but little has been said about the effects of the Civil War on non-combatants. Scott Mingus and Jim McLure have now added another volume to their acclaimed Civil War Voices from York County, PA. This second volume, Echoing Still: More Voices from York, County, Pa. adds many more accounts from the perspectives of the citizens of that area. Using oral histories, letters, diaries, and newspapers accounts to tell the story, this well-researched title provides fascinating details of daily life of the citizenry and also includes observations by the invaders. The authors include insightful descriptions of how York County citizens viewed national events and the Civil War\'s impact on them regarding their friends, relatives, and neighbors fighting on the battlefront. Mingus and McClure explain the importance of York County as a major hub in transporting troops, caring for wounded in the huge York hospital facility, and the generosity of its citizenry in helping to ease the misery of thousands of unfortunates. The authors immerse readers into this historic event by unfolding accounts in chronologic order. Tension slowly builds as the stories unfold, rumors spread as the armies pass into Pennsylvania, and climaxes into full-blown terror when the invaders arrive at the doorsteps of the locals. Echoing Still: More Voices from York, County, Pa. adds a needed dimension in understanding what occurs beyond the battlefield and what influence a roving enemy army has when it collides with the civilian population.
