Book excerpt: The introduction begins, "The trial before the Military Commission in Cincinnati, just concluded, was in many respects one of the most remarkable events of the war. The investigation has elicited testimony of the most startling character, showing conclusively to the minds of all reasonable men who have given to it careful, earnest attention that there was a most formidable, deep and well arranged conspiracy, which, but for timely discovery and judicious action, would have resulted most disastrously, not only to the particular cities and towns specified and doomed to destruction, but to the whole country. None can contemplate the danger through which we have passed without a shudder and without a recognition of the hand of a merciful Providence who has guided our beloved country in its darkest hours and who has crowned our struggles for liberty and union with glorious victory." Topics covered include _The Plot to plunder and burn Chicago--Release of all Rebel prisoners--Seizure of arsenals--Raids from Canada--Plot to burn New York--Piracy on the Lakes--Parts for the Sons of Liberty--Trial of Chicago conspirators--Inside views of the Temples of the Sons of Libertyand Names of prominent members. The Great North-Western Conspiracy in All Its Startling Details has the first use of the phrase hell in a hand basket in the quote: "Thousands of our best men were prisoners in Camp Douglas, and if once at liberty would send abolitionists to hell in a hand basket.'

Book excerpt: "The Great North-western Conspiracy" is a historical account of an attempt by a group of Confederate sympathizers to establish a pro-Southern state in the northwestern United States during the Civil War. The book, written by I. Winslow Ayer, provides a detailed overview of the conspiracy, from its origins to its eventual downfall. The conspirators, led by a former Ohio congressman named Clement Vallandigham, sought to create a new state called "the Northwest Confederacy" out of the territories of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. They hoped to establish a base of operations from which they could launch attacks on Union forces in the East and ultimately win the war for the Confederacy. However, the conspiracy was uncovered by Union authorities and the leaders were arrested and tried for treason. Vallandigham was banished to the South but eventually returned to Ohio and continued to agitate against the Union cause. Ayer's book offers a comprehensive account of the conspiracy, including its planning, recruitment efforts, and failed attempts to gain support from foreign powers. It also sheds light on the political climate of the era and the deep divisions that existed within the country during the Civil War.

Download or read book A History of Chicago Volume II written by Bessie Louise Pierce and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-09 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major history of Chicago ever written, A History of Chicago covers the city’s great history over two centuries, from 1673 to 1893. Originally conceived as a centennial history of Chicago, the project became, under the guidance of renowned historian Bessie Louise Pierce, a definitive, three-volume set describing the city’s growth—from its humble frontier beginnings to the horrors of the Great Fire, the construction of some of the world’s first skyscrapers, and the opulence of the 1893 World’s Fair. Pierce and her assistants spent over forty years transforming historical records into an inspiring human story of growth and survival. Rich with anecdotal evidence and interviews with the men and women who made Chicago great, all three volumes will now be available for the first time in years. A History of Chicago will be essential reading for anyone who wants to know this great city and its place in America. “With this rescue of its history from the bright, impressionable newspapermen and from the subscription-volumes, Chicago builds another impressive memorial to its coming of age, the closing of its first ‘century of progress.’”—E. D. Branch, New York Times (1937)
