"Connecticut in the American Civil War: Slavery, Sacrifice, and

Civil War can achieve. More than a synthesis, his book attains a
potent combination of description and analysis."--Peter C. Luebke,
The Civil War Monitor

racial policy at the heart of Connecticut's wartime history. I hope
that every state's commemoration of the sesquicentennial of the
Civil War produces a study as good as this one."--Mark E. Neely,
Jr., author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, The Fate of
Liberty: Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties
"With Connecticut in the American Civil War, Matthew Warshauer
links local and personal stories to a well known national story,
providing readers with provocation and useful ways to think about
Connecticut's past, the Civil War, and their effects on
contemporary issues.""--Sally Whipple, former president,
Connecticut League of Historical Organizations
