- Summary
- "Mr. Voegeli's ... study is the first comprehensive analysis of midwestern attitudes toward the Negro during the Civil War. It shows how racialism generated opposition to emancipation and the war, helped to delay enlistment of Negro soldiers, provided the Democratic party with a continuing source of strength, and strongly influenced the policies of Congress and even President Lincoln"--Jacket.
