This review is from: Iowa on the Eve of the Civil War: A Decade of Frontier Politics (Hardcover)

This book discusses the demographic changes, and their political effects, occuring as the frontier was settled in the 1850's, and the impact that this had upon the contributions the state later made to the Civil War. Crucial to a real understanding of midwest poltics and the history of the mid-Victorian period.
