This book is a history of the events leading up to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which set the stage for the Civil War. Sidney George Fisher describes the political machinations and popular movements that led to the act, as well as its consequences for the country as a whole. He pays particular attention to the role of the press in shaping public opinion, and to the conflicts between the pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions.
