Description

Kentucky was uniquely split in interests and sentiments during the Civil War, with the people and folkways from the South, but the economy dependent on the Union-held Ohio Valley. Kentucky's unique effort to maintain a hopeless, neutral status, her subsequent occupation, and the early application of military government and suspension of civil rights for citizens make her experience outstanding in the history of the period. E. Merton Coulter's account of Kentucky's ordeal draws heavily on the primary sources and is the authoritative study on the state in this period.
This edition had been formatted and republished in faithfulness to the 1926 original edition. It is not a facsimile reprint.
"The author exhibits a mastery of his subject and presents it in a charming literary style of facts in so impressive a manner as to make the volume a story." -Georgia Historical Quarterly
"The best feature about this book is that it presents very clearly and forcefully the psychological groupings about the sectional issues, tracing and explaining the ever-shifting opinion of these groups." -Frank L. Owsley
"It fills a yawning gap in our history." -R. S. Cotterill
