N2  - This work explains how American prophecies and forecasts of the Civil War formed, spread, and affected the war's outbreak, conduct, meaning, and memory. It identifies two temporalities in nineteenth-century America, progressive anticipations and fatalistic expectations, and shows how these approaches to the future shaped predictions of frontier conflicts, class warfare, slave insurrections, revolutions, and Armageddon.
