Written in the face of immense obstacles during the Civil War, this book was Trollope's defence of the Union and the North's right to preserve it.

Trollope looked beneath the surface of what he first saw as a savage country and discovered that what the British would consider barbarism and lack of deference could be attributed to equality and the pride of the individual.
