This classic survey of one of the most dramatic eras in American history is most notable, perhaps, for the insight it offers into the mindset of the era itself. First published from 1893 through 1906, in the immediate aftermath of the events it covers, it was criticized even then for the author's clear bias-Rhodes believed it was a mistake to have given black men the right to vote after the Civil War. Today, it remains a fascinating look at the times through a prism that is itself of historical interest.
This eight-volume set is a replica of the 1920 "new" edition.
Volume IV covers:
the sieges of Yorktown and Vicksburg
the Tax Act of 1862
the Emancipation Proclamation
the surrender of Harper's Ferry
the battles of Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville
the Gettysburg Address
French and English sympathy
draft riots in New York
Lincoln's reelection
and much more.
After earning a fortune in iron, coal, and steel, American author JAMES FORD RHODES (1848-1927) retired to write about history, for which he won the Loubat Prize from the Berlin Academy of Sciences (1901) and the gold medal from the National Institute of Arts and Letters (1910). He is also the author of the single-volume History of the Civil War, 1861-1865 (1918), available from Cosimo.
