CHAPTER FOURTEEN: A PUMPKIN IN EACH END OF MY BAG
Allan Nevins, The War for the Union (New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1960), vol. 2, offers the most comprehensive survey of the period between the preliminary and the final Emanc.i.p.ation Proclamations. I have also found especially useful William Safire's Freedom (Garden City, N.Y.: Doubleday & Co., 1987). Though this account is fictional, it is abundantly doc.u.mented in Safire's "Underbook" of notes.
