I got an essay doubleshot for you. First is the essay that I wrote for History, then later I’m going to put up te essay I wrote for English. Before I give you the first essay I should give a little background info. We just finished discussing the Civil War, and during the discussion my teacher had been trying to give us examples of the “human face of war”, these were various instances showing what people went through during the war. On the test she gave us the essay, “Describe the human face of war.” This was my responce, enjoy!
Was has no human face. It drags men along helplessly forcing them to either slaughter their brothers, or be slaughtered themselves. It causes loved ones to be lost, families to be broken, and lives of survivors to be destroyed. In some cases, as in the South, it causes those not on the battlefield to face starvation and shotages of clothing and basic necessities of life. War has no human face, and this war was no different.
