Lincoln and the Democrats describes the vexatious behavior of a
two-party system in war and points to the sound parts of the
American system which proved to be the country's salvation: local
civic pride, and quiet nonpartisanship in mobilization and funding
for the war, for example. While revealing that the role of a
noxious 'white supremacy' in American politics of the period has
been exaggerated - as has the power of the Copperheads - Neely
revives the claim that the Civil War put the country on the road to
'human rights', and also uncovers a previously unnoticed tendency
toward deceptive and impractical grandstanding on the Constitution
during war in the United States.
