This study of Civil War-era politics explores how German immigrants
influenced the rise and fall of white commitment to
African-American rights. Intertwining developments in Europe and
North America, Alison Clark Efford describes how the presence of
naturalized citizens affected the status of former slaves and
identifies 1870 as a crucial turning point. That year, the
Franco-Prussian War prompted German immigrants to re-evaluate the
liberal nationalism underpinning African-American suffrage.
Throughout the period, the newcomers' approach to race, ethnicity,
gender and political economy shaped American citizenship law.
