At the beginning of the war the Confederate states relied on exports of cotton, cattle, and corn to finance their military efforts. Surdam (economics, U. of Chicago and U. of Oregon) explores how the US naval blockade was a major factor in starving the rebellious country and its army into submission. He includes many maps.
