Editorial Reviews

Review
“A well-written and thoughtful production. I commend this book to anyone seriously interested in Maryland and the Civil War.”
Charles Branch Clark

Book Description
Maryland did not freely choose to remain in the Union at the outbreak of the Civil War, this book argues: the state was held by brute force. A colorful account of the dilemmas faced by Marylanders in the crisis as seen from the Southern point of view.
