“'Treated Worse than Felons before Prisons were Reformed': The Civil War’s Crisis of Imprisonment” a lecture at the Bellamy Mansion Museum on November 29, 2018.
The Civil War generated a crisis of imprisonment never before seen in the United States. Union and Confederate officials responded by constructing military prisons and relying on practices used to govern penitentiaries to manage them. Find out how the penitentiary program influenced the administration of military prisons and shaped the identity of prisoners of war in wartime prisons, including North Carolina's Salisbury Prison.
Angela Zombek is Assistant Professor of History at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. She is the author of Penitentiaries, Punishment, & Military Prisons: Familiar Responses to an Extraordinary Crisis during the American Civil War (Kent State University Press, 2018), and has written numerous articles and book chapters on imprisonment in the Civil War era. She is currently working on a book on Key West under martial law during the Civil War.
