own judgments on the highly subjective question of where to draw the lines of acceptable dissent in wartime. Deeply researched and accessibly written, this volume will immedi- ately become the standard reference for historians interested in the Union Leagues and amply realizes Taylor’s stated goal of producing a very wel- come addition to scholarship on the northern home front. Moreover, it offers general readers a compelling window into the long history of the arguments about loyalty and dissent in today’s hyperpartisan political world. Jack Furniss notes 1.
