The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fuelled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMaster storyteller Erik Larson offers a gripping account of the chaotic months between Lincoln's election and the Confederacy's shelling of Sumter - a period marked by tragic errors and miscommunications, enflamed egos and craven ambitions, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were 'so great that, could I have anticipated them, I would not have believed it possible to survive them'.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt the heart of this suspense-filled narrative are Major Robert Anderson, Sumter's commander and a former slave owner sympathetic to the South but loyal to the Union; Edmund Ruffin, a vain and bloodthirsty radical who stirs secessionist ardour at every opportunity; and Mary Boykin Chesnut, wife of a prominent planter, conflicted over both marriage and slavery and seeing parallels between both. In the middle of it all is the overwhelmed Lincoln, battling with his duplicitous Secretary of State, William Seward, as he tries desperately to avert a war that he fears is inevitable - one that will eventually kill 750,000 Americans.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDrawing on diaries, secret communiques, slave ledgers, and plantation records, Larson gives us a political horror story that captures the forces that led America to the brink - a dark reminder that we often don't see a cataclysm coming until it's too late.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\" style=\"background-color: #edeae3;\"\u003e\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_1\"\u003e\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_1\" class=\"accordion__summary\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title flex\" style=\"padding: 0 2rem 0 2rem;\"\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"accordion__title inline-richtext\" style=\"line-height: 2.5rem;\"\u003eData om boken\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 00-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 00-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 00.708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 000-.708z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_1\" style=\"padding: 0 2rem 0 2rem;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBindning:\u003c\/b\u003e Häftat band.\u003cb\u003eÅr:\u003c\/b\u003e Utg. 2025. \u003cb\u003eOmfång:\u003c\/b\u003e 592 s. \u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780008681791. \u003cb\u003eSpråk:\u003c\/b\u003e Engelska\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörfattare:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Larson+Erik\"\u003eLarson, Erik\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitel:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:The+Demon+of+Unrest\"\u003eThe Demon of Unrest\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörlag:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=vendor:Harper+Collins+UK\"\u003eHarper Collins UK\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Historia+och+arkeologi\"\u003eHistoria och arkeologi\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtikelnr:\u003c\/b\u003e 6388655260\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Demon of Unrest\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e av \u003cstrong\u003eErik Larson\u003c\/strong\u003e hittar du under genren \u003cstrong\u003eAmerikansk historia\u003c\/strong\u003e inom \u003cstrong\u003eHistoria \u0026amp; arkeologi\u003c\/strong\u003e i kategorin \u003cstrong\u003eHumaniora\u003c\/strong\u003e.
