Strausbaugh, John, 1951-. City of sedition: The history of New York City during the Civil War. New York: Twelve, 2016, stated First Edition, and 1st printing, 423pp., very good dust-jacket, slightest rubbing of one corner, very good brown hardcover, never used, NO remainder mark. In a single definitive narrative, CITY OF SEDITION tells the spellbinding story of the huge--and hugely conflicted--role New York City played in the Civil War. No city was more of a help to Abraham Lincoln and the Union war effort, or more of a hindrance. No city raised more men, money, and materiel for the war, and no city raised more hell against it. It was a city of patriots, war heroes, and abolitionists, but simultaneously a city of antiwar protest, draft resistance, and sedition. ISBN 9781455584185.
