Contributors position the American conflict squarely in the context of a wider transnational crisis across the Atlantic world, marked by a multitude of civil wars, European invasions and occupations, revolutionary independence movements, and slave uprisings--all taking place in the tumultuous decade of the 1860s. The multiple conflicts described in these essays illustrate how the United States' sectional strife was caught up in a larger, complex struggle in which nations and empires on both sides of the Atlantic vied for the control of the future. These struggles were all part of a vast web, connecting not just Washington and Richmond but also Mexico City, Havana, Santo Domingo, and Rio de Janeiro and -- on the other side of the Atlantic -- London, Paris, Madrid, and Rome. This volume breaks new ground by charting a hemispheric upheaval and expanding Civil War scholarship into the realms of transnational and imperial history. \u003ci\u003eAmerican Civil Wars\u003c\/i\u003e creates new connections between the uprisings and civil wars in and outside of American borders and places the United States within a global context of other nations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors: \u003cbr\u003eMatt D.
