Item description from seller

414+(8) pages. First edition. The author was an Irish born editor of the Dubuque Iowa Herald, a prominent Copperhead (Peace Democrat), who was arrested in 1862 for disloyalty for his criticisms of Lincoln's suspension of Habeus Corpus in his conduct of the Civil War. He was released after a three month confinement only after signing an oath of allegiance, and this account covers his imprisonment and his ongoing quarrel with Lincoln. Good condition with some spotting to the covers, a number of very small nicks to the spine, light edge wear, and some unevenness to the text block (somewhat poorly bound). Pages are browned with age, owner name at top of title page. Uncommon.
