When Abraham Lincoln’s election in 1860 prompted several Southern states to secede, the North was sharply divided over how to respond. From small towns to big cities and from state capitals to Washington, D.C., McClintock highlights individuals both powerful and obscure to demonstrate the ways ordinary citizens, party activists, state officials, and national leaders interacted to influence the Northern response to what was essentially a political crisis.
