Book Description
Excerpt from Reconstruction of the Union: Suggestions to the People of the North on a Reconstruction of the Union There are occasions, in the convulsive events of nations, when it becomes an imperative obligation on the humblest citizen, as well as it is the duty of the most exalted statesman, to become a voluntary mariner on the Ship of State, and to do the part which becomes a patriot in that capacity, in preserving from destruction the Ark of the National Covenant. It is in this capacity, as a private volunteer, that the writer comes before his fellow-citizens, and lays before them such considerations as may influence them to reflect upon the real condition of our common country, and as may lead them to apply some effectual remedy to the evils which have affected it to such an extent as to have involved it in a fratricidal war, and which threatens its destruction as a nation and our ruin as a people.

Book Description
Excerpt from Reconstruction and Union 1865-1912 The weeks following the surrender of Lee at Appomattox (April 9, 1865)justified General Sherman's declaration that the South was "an empty shell." The Confederacy collapsed even more rapidly than it had arisen. The war-worn veterans in gray, weakened by want and wounds, scattered heavy-hearted to their desolated homes, and before the end of May the Stars and Stripes once more swung to every breeze from the Potomac to the Rio Grande. The war was over. A revolt begun to perpetuate slavery and state rights had ended in a revolution that had extinguished both. The sword could be sheathed, but there remained the two great problems of the status of the seceded states and the status of the freedmen. Both problems pressed hard for solution, but the latter was infinitely the more difficult. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Opinions on 'Slavery, ' and 'Reconstruction of the Union': As Expressed by President Lincoln Resolutions upon the subject of domestic slavery having passed both branches of the General Assembly at its present session, the undersigned hereby protest against the passage of the same.

Book Description
Excerpt from Reconstruction During the Civil War in the United States of America The term reconstruction, in American politics, applies more aptly to the revolted states than it does to the federal Union; for the mutilated form of the Union was restored by the mere ascendancy of the northern arms, but it was not until after this had occurred that the eleven states were reconstructed. The period during which the process of renewal was taking place is called, in popular speech, the Recon struction Period, and it refers, somewhat indefinitely, to the time occupied by the single term of President Johnson and the succeeding two terms of President Grant, the presidential terms during which the ancient governments of. The subdued states were finally Subverted, and new ones were erected in their places. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
