About this title

Synopsis:

Klement refutes the past historical theories and shows that such subversive, secret Civil War societies as the Knights of the Golden Circle, the Order of American Knights, and the Sons of Liberty were never much more than paper-based organizations with vague goals and little ability to carry them out.

About the Author:

Frank L. Klement is emeritus professor of history at Marquette University. He is the author of Copperheads in the Middle West; Wisconsin and the Civil War; and The Limits of Dissent: Clement L. Vallandigham and the Civil War.
