Soldiers were obtained in the Civil War by volunteering and later the draft. In the South, any able-bodied male between the ages of 17 and 50 could be drafted. In the North, between ages 17 and 25. A Southerner could avoid the draft by owning at least twenty slaves. A Northerner could avoid the draft by paying the government $300. For this reason, the Civil War became known as "The rich man's war, poor man's fight".
