About this book
In July 1863 New York City experienced widespread rioting unparalleled in the history of the nation. Here for the first time is a scholarly analysis of the Draft Riots dealing with motives and with the reasons for the recurring civil disorders in nineteenth-century New York: the appalling living conditions the corruption of the civic government and the geographical and economic factors that led up to the social upheaval.
