Lincoln's Peace (inbunden, eng)
Produktbeskrivning
We set out on the James River, March 25, 1865, aboard the paddle steamboat River Queen. President Lincoln is on his way to General Grants headquarters at City Point, Virginia, and hes decided he wont return to Washington until hes witnessed, or perhaps even orchestrated, the end of the Civil WarNow, it turns out, more than a century and a half later, historians are still searching for that end.
Was it April 9, at Appomattox, as conventional wisdom holds, where Lee surrendered to Grant in Wilmer McLeans parlor? Or was it ten weeks afterward, in Galveston, where a federal commander proclaimed Juneteenth the end of slavery? Or perhaps in August of 1866, when President Andrew Johnson simply declared the insurrection is at an end? That the answer was elusive was baffling even to a historian of the stature of Michael Vorenberg, whose work served as a key source of Steven Spielbergs LincolnVorenberg was inspired to write this groundbreaking book, finding its title in the peace Lincoln hoped for but could not make before his assassination. A peace that required not one but many endings, as Vorenberg reveals in these pages, the most important of which came well more than a year after Lincolns untimely death.
To say how a war ends is to suggest how it should be remembered, and Vorenbergs search is not just for the Civil Wars endpoint but for its true nature and legacy, so essential to the American identityIts also a quest, in our age of forever wars, to understand whether the United States''s interminable conflicts of the current era have a precedent in the Civil Warand whether, in a sense, wars ever end at all, or merely wax and wane.
