The New York City Draft Riots: Their Significance for American Society and Politics in the Age of the Civil War
Iver Bernstein
For five days in July 1863, New York City was under siege. Angry rioters burned draft offices, closed factories, destroyed railroad tracks and telegraph lines, and hunted policemen and soldiers. Iver Bernstein tells the story of the New York City draft riots, detailing how what began as a demonstration against the first federal draft expanded into a sweeping assault against local institutions.
