Synopsis
In the first full-length portrait of the Copperheads to appear in almost half a century, Weber reveals how this party came close to defeating Lincoln and ending the war in the South's favor. Indeed, by the summer of 1864, they had grown so strong that Lincoln himself thought his defeat was "exceedingly likely." Passionate defenders of civil liberties and states' rights--and often virulent racists--the Copperheads deplored Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus, his liberal interpretation of the Constitution, and, most vehemently, his moves toward emancipation. Weber reveals how the battle over these issues grew so heated that Northerners feared their neighbors.

Hardback. Condition: Good. Abraham Lincoln fought the Civil War on two fronts - a military effort against the Confederate Army, and an intense political struggle against those within the North who opposed the war. Looking at these dissidents, this title reveals that they posed a much more serious threat to Lincoln and the Union than has been commonly recognised. Seller Inventory # 00110785798
