In the spring of 1861, Virginians confronted destiny. Pivotal decisions awaited about secession, the consequences of which would unfold for a hundred years and more. But few Virginians wanted to decide at all. Instead, they talked, almost interminably. This title offers a collection of speeches by men for whom everything was at risk.

Recenzii

"In early 1861 Virginia rejected secession and tried to promote peaceful reunion, but the state reversed itself in mid-April. Showdown in Virginia, expertly edited by Bill Freehling and Craig Simpson, provides a ringside seat as the Old Dominion wrestled with its tragic dilemma and finally sided with the Southern Confederacy. At long last, historians and their students will have easy access to this indispensable source." - Daniel W. Crofts, The College of New Jersey, author of Reluctant Confederates: Upper South Unionists in the Secession Crisis"
