The Union War with Dr. Gary Gallagher

Although emancipation was a key outcome of the Civil War, it was devotion to the Union and the belief that the American republic was the “last best hope of earth” that sustained millions of loyal soldiers and civilians in the United States during this country’s deadliest conflict. Join us for this discussion with Dr. Gary Gallagher, John L. Nau III Professor in the History of the American Civil War Emeritus, University of Virginia. #history #americancivilwar #americanhistory #unitedstates #america
