This book breaks new ground, not only in its coverage of
California, but also in its treatment of the role of cultural links
in enhancing national loyalty, in its attention to many groups of
people of color, including Chinese and Latinos, and what happened
to them during the Civil War. In addition, the book devotes
attention to the ebb and flow of the two political parties and to
the little-known fact that nearly 17,000 California men and women
volunteered for military service on behalf of the Union. Glenna
Matthews broadens understanding of the Civil War era both in terms
of geography and in terms of social groupings.
