Omschrijving
The Union army's overwhelming vote for Abraham Lincoln's reelection in 1864 has led many scholars to conclude that the soldiers supported the Republican Party and its effort to abolish slavery. Jonathan White challenges this paradigm, arguing that the soldier vote is not a reliable index of the army's ideological motivation or political sentiment.
