The Shattering of the Union: America in the 1850s (The American Crisis:Books on the Civil War Era, 14)

Rating:
Summary: A critical examination of history
Review: The latest addition to the outstanding Scholarly Resources "The American Crisis Series", The Shattering Of The Union: America In The 1850s by Eric H. Walther (University of Houston) informatively examines the complex, severe, and violent national debate over slavery that would eventually lead to the Civil War. A critical examination of history which is scholarly, exceptionally well written, and suited for classroom presentation, The Shattering Of The Union is utterly compelling and recommended non-specialist general reader and Civil War buff interested in learning more about America in the days just before its deadliest internal conflict. The Shattering Of The Union is a welcome contribution to American history collections.
