Produktbeschreibung
The Civil War was the costliest conflict in United States history, claiming more than 600,000 lives. It was also a transformative event that freed nearly 4 million slaves and changed the nation. This volume examines the aftermath of the Civil War, including the assassination of Lincoln, amnesty, constitutional amendments, Reconstruction, Compromise, Disenfranchisement, and the lasting legacy for all Americans.
President Lincoln began planning "reconstruction" for the defeated South before the end of the war: how to integrate former slaves into their society, how to bring former Confederates back into the Union fold, and the process by which the ravaged South would be re-built. The era of Reconstruction ended up lasting 3 times longer than the actual war.
