Pages : 705
Book Description
"The amendments to the U.S. Constitution passed in the aftermath of the Civil War not only abolished slavery but reshaped the reach of the Constitution. Kurt Lash has collected documents ranging campaign speeches and party platforms through personal diaries of leading (and obscure) figures, to the Confederate states' declarations of secession that help us understand the history and meaning of these critical amendments: the 13th (abolishing slavery), 14th (citizenship, due process, equal protection), and 15th (expands right to vote). This is a two-volume set: the first offers broad background, context, and themes ("The Ante-bellum Constitution"); and material related to the 13th Amendment, while the second volume covers the 14th and 15th Amendments, with the 14th on balance dominating the discussion due to its outsized importance and complexity"--

Book Description
Before the Civil War, Lois Bryan Adams was a well-known Michigan poet and editor In 1863 she left Detroit for Washington, D.C., where she was one of the first women in the federal civil service and one of the first employees of the United States Department of Agriculture. In addition to her government position, Adams was a regular correspondent for the Detroit Advertiser and Tribune. Adams was a concerned and observant reporter whose columns covered politics, war news, hospital and relief efforts, African-American issues, women's issues, the Agriculture Department, and the attractions and amusements of the nation's capital. Adams's descriptions provide a seldom-encountered view of the Civil War era. Her commentaries show her to be an insightful reporter and provide a fascinating look into this important period of history.
