Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most contentious event in our nation's history, the Civil War deeply divided families, friends, and communities. Both sides fought to define the conflict on their own terms -- Lincoln and his supporters struggled to preserve the Union and end slavery, while the Confederacy waged a battle for the primacy of local liberty or "states' rights." But the war had its own peculiar effects on the four border slave states that remained loyal to the Union. Internal disputes and shifting allegiances injected uncertainty, apprehension, and violence into the everyday lives of their citizens. No state better exemplified the vital role of a border state than Maryland -- where the passage of time has not dampened debates over issues such as the alleged right of secession and executive power versus civil liberties in wartime. In Maryland Voices of the Civil War, Charles W. Mitchell draws upon hundreds of letters, diaries, and period newspapers to portray the passions of a wide variety of people -- merchants, slaves, soldiers, politicians, freedmen, women, clergy, civic leaders, and children -- caught in the emotional vise of war. Mitchell reinforces the provocative notion that Maryland's Southern sympathies -- while genuine -- never seriously threatened to bring about a Confederate Maryland. Maryland Voices of the Civil War illuminates the human complexities of the Civil War era and the political realignment that enabled Marylanders to abolish slavery in their state before the end of the war.

Download or read book Civil War Maryland written by Richard P Cox and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08-16 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compelling stories from a state on the border of the Mason-Dixon line that illustrate its unique role in the American Civil War. By the time the American Civil War began, the agrarian, slave-owning South and the rapidly industrializing North had become almost two separate nations. As a border state with ties to both sides, Maryland and its people played a unique role in the war. This series of essays on Maryland’s involvement in the conflict and its aftermath highlights some of the personalities and events that make Maryland’s Civil War stories unusual and compelling. Author Richard P. Cox draws on original sources and contributions from historians to relate the many ironies, curiosities, and legends that abound.
Download or read book Maryland in the Civil War written by Steven B. Rhodes and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sources collected in this book are representative of Maryland's experience in the Civil War and a valuable guide for anyone interested in Maryland's heritage. Numerous historical works have been published in which the major battles in Maryland are remembered and studied, but the same may not be said of Maryland's people. Maryland contributed men to both sides of the war, but produced no Lee or Stuart, no Grant, Sherman or Sheridan. With the exception of Harriet Tubman and Raphael Semmes, those Marylanders who achieved notoriety in their lifetimes are largely forgotten. Ask the average person if they know of John Reese Kenly, Bradley T. Johnson, Harry Gilmore, the men of the 1st Maryland Infantry (U.S.), the Maryland Cavalry (C.S.A.), or the 7th United States Colored Troops and few will respond. Still, if not well remembered, the Maryland men and women of the Civil War are not lost. Their lives are preserved in published works; or, resting in archives and libraries. This book will help you find them. The author's passion for his subject shines through in his fascinating "Introduction: A Historiography of Maryland in the Civil War," which precedes the listings. Sections include: Published Sources, Broadsides, and Manuscripts. An index to full-names, places and subjects adds to the value of this work.

Download or read book Maryland in the Civil War written by Mark A. Swank and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There were over 75 raids and battles that took place in Maryland during the Civil War, including "Bloody Antietam"--the bloodiest day in American military history. As a border state between the North and South during the Civil War, Maryland's loyalties were strong for both sides. The first casualties of the war occurred during the Baltimore Riot of April 19, 1861, when members of the 6th Massachusetts Regiment were attacked by Confederate supporters while traversing through the city on their way to protect Washington, DC, from attack. Ten days later, Maryland chose not to secede from the Union by a vote of 53-13. On September 17, 1862, near Sharpsburg, one of the largest and bloodiest battles of the Civil War took place at "Bloody Antietam." At the end of the day, nearly one in four men would be a casualty of the battle, making it the bloodiest day in American military history. There were over 75 skirmishes, raids, and major battles that took place in Maryland during the Civil War. Through vintage photographs, Maryland in the Civil War shares the state's rich military heritage.

Download or read book Union Occupied Maryland written by Claudia Floyd and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first Federal troops arrived in the spring of 1861, Maryland was in the precarious position of a border state. Predominately loyal to the Union, Marylanders saw the influx of soldiers as defenders. Yet for the minority supporting the Confederacy, the Federals were oppressors. Historian Claudia Floyd explores this complex relationship between Maryland civilians and their Union occupiers. Residents on both sides of the conflict faced pillaging, vandalizing and criminal acts from errant soldiers. Civilians also quickly realized that Federal troops could not guarantee protection from Confederate invasions. Meanwhile, there was a strong backlash over African American emancipation and enlistment in the longtime slave state. Through contemporary accounts, Floyd creates a nuanced portrait of citizens and soldiers caught up in the turbulent upheaval of war.
