THE CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAG, AMERICA'S MOST EMBATTLED EMBLEM by JOHN M. COSKI; PUBLISHER: Belknap Press: 2005 copyright; 396 pages. $29.95 price on DJ flap
Pursuing the flag's conflicting meanings, Coski suggests how this provocative artifact, which has been viewed with pride, fear, anger, nostalgia, and disgust, might ultimately provide Americans with the common ground of a shared and complex history. He reveals the flag's ori...gins as one of many banners unfurled on the battlefields of the Civil War and shows how it emerged as the preeminent representation of the Confederacy and was transformed into a cultural icon from Reconstruction on, becoming an aggressively racist symbol only after World War II and during the Civil Rights movement.
