Disunion!: The Coming of the American Civil War, 1789-1859 Paperback - 2010
by Elizabeth R. Varon
From the jacket flap
In the decades of the early republic, Americans debating the fate of slavery often invoked the specter of disunion to frighten their opponents. According to Varon, "disunion" connoted the dissolution of the republic--the failure of the founders' effort to establish a stable and lasting representative government. For many Americans in both the North and the South, disunion was a nightmare, the image of a cataclysm that would reduce them to the kind of fear and misery that seemed to pervade the rest of the world. For many others, however, disunion was seen as the main instrument by which they could achieve their partisan and sectional goals. Varon blends political history with intellectual, cultural, and gender history to examine the ongoing debates over disunion that long preceded the secession crisis.
