- Summary
- Edited by Gary Gallagher and Elizabeth Varon, two of the most prominent American historians on the nineteenth century in the nation, [this book] provides a more nuanced understanding of what "Union" meant in the Civil War North by exploring how various groups of Northerners conceived of the term. The essays in this volume demonstrate that while there was a broad consensus that the war was fought, or should be fought, for the cause of Union, there was bitter disagreement over how to define that cause--debate not only between political camps but also within them. The chapters touch on economics, politics, culture, military affairs, ethnicity, and questions relating to just war. -- Back cover.
