Summary
Few Americans in the early 1800s dreamed that the next two decades would see a growth in tensions that would lead to civil war. War did come, and during the succeeding century that was, its causes, its military history, and its aftermath, have been endlessly fascinating to Americans. The stakes of power, which won an Anthenacum of Philadelhia book award in 1961, is an account of this period.
