Review

“The documents in this skillfully edited reader demonstrate with startling clarity the dramatic change the Civil War wrought in American law and society. This is one of the finest compendiums ever assembled of the legal cases, speeches, essays, and legislative acts from this period.”—Michael A. Ross, author of Justice of Shattered Dreams: Samuel Freeman Miller and the Supreme Court during the Civil War Era

 

 “Changes in Law and Society during the Civil War and Reconstruction provides the essential and necessary original source material for a clear understanding of the middle period of American history.  The documents, state papers, court opinions, and excellent illustrations improve our understanding of the tumultuous period of the Civil War and Reconstruction.”

—Frank J. Williams, author of Judging Lincoln
