Reviews

[Matthew · Rating 3 out of 5]

Albion Tourgee, under the pseudonym "Edgar Henry", wrote this fictional account of the peaceful separation of the North and South in 1889. Could be useful in a study of Southern and Northern sentiments during and following the Civil War as well as of the "Gilded Age."
