By Howard Palmer Johnson. Reprinted from the Louisiana Historical Quarterly, Vol. 24, No. 2, April 1941. In beige wraps, 105pp, 10.5” x 7. Exhibits light chipping at the margins. Else VG.

This monograph offers a tempered view of Butler’s activities in New Orleans during his 1862 tenure as Louisiana Military Governor. On the eve of Succession, the city’s business class realized that a Civil War could be devastating to its prosperity were reluctant to endorse a breakup of the Union. After the fat was in the fire, the author concludes that Benjamin Butler’s conduct was probably no worse than any other victor toward the vanquished. A plausible point of view. In protective sleeve.[jp][ph:L]
