Subjects: Patriotism;

Situational and wartime constructions of "Patriotism" and "Loyalty" shaped American discourse and actions throughout the Civil War. While most scholarly work on Civil War Era nationalism has focused on southern identity and Confederate nationhood, this volume examines the variable, fluid constructions of these concepts in the Civil War Era North.
