Arguing for the importance of the aural dimension of history, Smith explores how what 19th-century Americans heard in their daily lives helped shape their understanding of such events and institutions as the coming of the Civil War, slavery, freedom, and modernization. How, why, and what people heard contributed significantly to the construction of what it meant to be northern or southern, slave or free.
