{"product_id":"the-senates-civil-war-senate-historical-office-9781782661436","title":"The Senate's Civil War","description":"The United States Senate played a crucial role during the Civil War. Although the history of the war is often told from the perspective of President Abraham Lincoln and his military commanders, the Senate faced war-related issues even before Lincoln took the oath of office, and continued to influence national events throughout the war. In the post-war Reconstruction years, senators led the debates over emancipation, civil rights, and the readmission of Southern states to representation, and they proposed constitutional amendments to guarantee rights of citizenship. Throughout this long period of national crisis, the Senate also fulfilled its oversight and legislative responsibilities, passing a remarkable collection of landmark bills. In commemoration of the sesquicentennial of these pivotal events, this is the story of the Senate's Civil War.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Senate Historical Office\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1782661433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781782661436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e www.Militarybookshop.Co.UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 7.44w x 0.08d","brand":"Senate Historical Office","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440028692735,"sku":"9781782661436","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9bcfb5eb-bcd9-43e1-9b9d-2df89a9a1869.jpg?v=1777180135","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-senates-civil-war-senate-historical-office-9781782661436","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
