About this book

Between Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln, 1828 to 1865, the United States split along sectional lines, and William E. Dodd of the University of Chicago traces the forces behind that conflict in about three hundred short pages. His preface argues that Americans were not one nation until after the Civil War, and that each region's economic interests, such as the cotton and tobacco of the South, shaped votes in Congress more than speeches did. Webster and Calhoun serve as examples. Short reading lists close each chapter, for college students and general readers.
