During the Civil War, St. Louis was under martial law. The city was divided to the core. A Most Unsettled State conveys this precarious dynamic through the pens of those who experienced it. Author NiNi Harris collects memoirs, letters, sermons, and accounts that reveal a critical time in a volatile place. Learn firsthand about the women who nursed wounded soldiers, the ministers who were appalled by slavery, and Southern sympathizers whose resentment grew as the Union gained control of St. Louis. The book contains eyewitness accounts of significant events that occurred in the streets, not to mention the writers' insights and feelings.

Life-long St. Louisan NiNi Harris has written twelve books on the ethnic history, architecture, and landscape of St. Louis. She loves discovering dusty records in a church basement, or fading photos in an old scrapbook, that reveal some image or story from our city's past.
