The American Civil War was by far the bloodiest conflict in
American history. Arising out of a political crisis over the
expansion of slavery, the war set the stage for the emergence of
the modern American nation-state. This new interpretation of one of
the most mythologized events in modern history combines narrative
with analysis and an up-to-date assessment of the state of Civil
War scholarship. The American Civil War: - emphasizes the
importance of Northern public opinion in shaping the meaning and
outcome of the crisis - argues that the war exposed deep social and
political divisions within, as well as between, North and South -
explores the experiences of ordinary soldiers and civilians, and
the political and cultural context in which they lived - sets this
distinctively American crisis over slavery and nationhood in the
wider context of the nineteenth-century world. Concise and
authoritative, this is an indispensable introduction to a critical
period in modern American history.
