Looming Civil War : How Nineteenth-Century Americans Imagined the Future

The Civil War haunted Americans long before it happened. As this innovative book shows, forecasts and prophecies of bloodshed shaped how people approached the conflict and reacted to its unfolding drama. The war changed America's future and transformed how Americans have thought about the future ever since.
