    The Loyal West: Civil War and Reunion in Middle America

    The Loyal West: Civil War and Reunion in Middle America

    Matthew E. Stanley, "The Loyal West: Civil War and Reunion in Middle America"
    English | 2016 | ISBN: 0252082249, 0252040732 | EPUB | pages: 288 | 3.2 mb

    A free region deeply influenced by southern mores, the Lower Middle West represented a true cultural and political median in Civil War–era America. Here grew a Unionism steeped in the mythology of the Loyal West–a myth rooted in regional and racial animosities and the belief that westerners had won the war.
    Matthew E. Stanley's intimate study explores the Civil War, Reconstruction, and sectional reunion in this bellwether region. Using the lives of area soldiers and officers as a lens, Stanley reveals a place and a strain of collective memory that was anti-rebel, anti-eastern, and anti-black in its attitudes–one that came to be at the forefront of the northern retreat from Reconstruction and toward white reunion. The Lower Middle West's embrace of black exclusion laws, origination of the Copperhead movement, backlash against liberalizing war measures, and rejection of Reconstruction were all pivotal to broader American politics. And the region's legacies of white supremacy–from racialized labor violence to sundown towns to lynching–found malignant expression nationwide, intersecting with how Loyal Westerners remembered the war.
    A daring challenge to traditional narratives of section and commemoration, The Loyal West taps into a powerful and fascinating wellspring of Civil War identity and memory.
