5.0 out of 5 stars There is nothing new under the sun!, June 15, 2009

By	Larry L. Burton "Unreconstructed Confederate" (West Point, Kentucky, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I can only say that it is difficult reading, due to the over whelming amount of graft and political corruption of that era. They made some of today's political corruptions seem mild by comparison! I have a personal letter from one of Kentucky's Representatives of that era, and he compares much of what was going on in Washington, D.C., to a cesspool of coruption. Mr. Lincoln's war to change the voluntary confederated union of sovereign states into a consolidated "Nation" of people en masse, opened the door, and the Radical Republicans (who made today's liberal Democrats look good)were only too glad to pour through it! They went far beyond what Lincoln had in mind, and we are not likely to ever get over it! Actually, some historians seem to suggest that opposition to their extreme policies might have contributed to his assasination, as well as the impeachment of President Johnson! Interesting to ponder on, to say the least! An important book about a subject which many would prefer to keep behind the closet door, so to speak.
