A Nation Drawn and Quartered

In class, we explored the results of the election of 1860 and how they were representative of the nation's divisions over slavery.  In our exploration, we looked at events and some art from the Civil War era that showed the division of the Union.  We made a video explaining the context of the paintings and how they showed the separation.
