This version of Essays on the Civil War and Reconstruction is an historic 1898 version.

The first of the essays in this book are devoted immediately to various phases of the Civil War and Reconstruction and the last essays, while not concerned
exclusively with those topics, have nevertheless such a relation to the legal and political questions treated as to justify their inclusion in the volume.

As to the Reconstruction, the author believes that the term to most people is merely a synonym for bad government, and conveys no idea of the profound problems of statecraft that had to be solved between 1865 and 1870. The essays collected in this book were written with reference to this situation and throw light on the actual history of the time with which they deal.
