Fierce political debates set communities on edge, spurred secret plots against the Union, and triggered widespread violence, such as the New York City draft riots. And at the heart of all this turmoil stood Northern anti-war Democrats, nicknamed ""Copperheads."". Now, Jennifer L. Weber offers the first full-length portrait of this powerful faction to appear in almost half a century. Weber reveals how the Copperheads came perilously close to defeating Lincoln and ending the war in the South's favor 606 $aCopperhead movement 606 $aDissenters$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xProtest movements 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1861-1865 615 0$aCopperhead movement. 615 0$aDissenters$xHistory 676 $a973.7/12 700 $aWeber$b Jennifer L.$f1962-$01468605 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777634003321 996 $aCopperheads$93831464 997 $aUNINA
