Civil Wars and Reconstructions in the Americas
The United States, Mexico, and Argentina, 1860–1880

In the latter half of the nineteenth century, three violent national conflicts rocked the Americas: the Wars of Unification in Argentina, the War of the Reform and French Intervention in Mexico, and the Civil War in the United States. The recovery efforts that followed reshaped the Western Hemisphere. In Civil Wars and Reconstructions in the Americas, Evan C. Rothera uses both transnational and comparative methodologies to highlight similarities and differences among the wars and reconstructions in the US, Mexico, and Argentina. In doing so, he uncovers a new history that stresses the degree to which cooperation and collaboration, rather than antagonism and discord, characterized the relationships among the three countries. This study serves as a unique assessment of a crucial period in the history of the Americas and speaks to the perpetual battle between visions of international partnership and isolation.

In recent years, Civil War veterans have emerged from historical obscurity. Inspired by recent interest in memory studies and energised by the ongoing neorevisionist turn, a vibrant new literature has given the lie to the once-obligatory lament that the postbellum lives of Civil War soldiers were irretrievable. Despite this flood of historical scholarship, fundamental questions about the essential character of Civil War veteranhood remain unanswered. Moreover, because work on veterans has often proceeded from a preoccupation with cultural memory, the Civil War's ex-soldiers have typically been analysed as either symbols or producers of texts. In The War Went On: Reconsidering the Lives of Civil War Veterans, fifteen of the field's top scholars provide a more nuanced and intimate look at the lives and experiences of these former soldiers.Essays in this collection approach Civil War veterans from oblique angles, including theater, political, and disability history, as well as borderlands and memory studies. Contributors examine the lives of Union and Confederate veterans, African American veterans, former prisoners of war, amputees, and ex-guerrilla fighters. They also consider postwar political elections, veterans' business dealings, and even literary contests between onetime enemies and among former comrades.

The volume addresses some of the most well-known and hotly contested debates in Lincoln studies, offering readers a clear map of existing research. The book also includes: Historiographical analysis covering depictions of Lincoln as emancipator, conservative, radical, military strategist, politician, and constitutional stewardCoverage of contested topics including Lincoln's views on race, religion, marriage, and the expansion of executive powerAn authoritative overview connecting past interpretations to current scholarly directions and emerging lines of inquiry in the fieldEssays accessible to specialists, graduate students, and informed general readers seeking orientation within Lincoln scholarshipContributions examining Lincoln's enduring cultural memory, public legacy, and evolving legend from 1865 to the present dayDesigned as a reference volume for historians, graduate students, librarians, archivists, and members of organizations such as the Lincoln Forum and Civil War Round Tables, A Companion to Abraham Lincoln provides the most current analysis of existing research on Lincoln's life, times, and lasting significance.
