BORDER WAR: FIGHTING OVER SLAVERY BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR by Stanley Harrold; PUBLISHER: University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill, NC; 2010 printing; 292 pages.
During the 1840s and 1850s, a dangerous ferment afflicted the North-South border region, pitting the slave states of Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri against the free states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Aspects of this struggle--the underground railroad, enforcement of the fugitive slave laws, mob actions, and sectional politics--are well known as parts of other stories. Here, Stanley Harrold explores the border struggle itself, the dramatic incidents that it comprised, and its role in the complex dynamics leading to the Civil War.
