Requests:  0 Summary:  As the United States marks the 150th anniversary of our defining national drama, historian Adam Goodheart presents an original account of how the Civil War began. 1861 is an epic of courage and heroism beyond the battlefields. Early in that fateful year, a second American revolution unfolded, inspiring a new generation to reject their parents' faith in compromise and appeasement, to do the unthinkable in the name of an ideal. It set Abraham Lincoln on the path to greatness and millions of slaves on the road to freedom. Goodheart takes us from the corridors of the White House to the slums of Manhattan, from the mouth of the Chesapeake to the deserts of Nevada, from Boston Common to Alcatraz Island, vividly evoking the Union at this moment of ultimate crisis and decision.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973.711 Go Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.711 Goodheart Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.711 Go Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.711 Go Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.711 Go Missing Inventory Add Copy to MyList
