Taking advantage of the undefended border, rebels hit targets along the Great Lakes, where growing antiwar sentiment was an election-year problem for the Lincoln administration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Revisiting one of the forgotten chapters of the war, this is a deeply-researched history of the South's operations in Canada. One of the most significant raids is covered in detail for the first time: Virginia planter turned Confederate agent John Yates Beall's attempt to liberate 2,700 Confederate officers from a prison camp on Lake Erie.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralph Lindeman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476692785\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476692784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Ralph Lindeman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44450073477375,"sku":"9781476692784","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6791a014-935b-42b7-9522-4b0990875188.jpg?v=1698502621","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/confederates-from-canada-ralph-lindeman-9781476692784","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
