Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 20 Mar 2017).

Beyond politics: how the north won the Civil War -- The elections of 1862, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the invention of the Democratic Party myth -- The problem of a loyal opposition -- The elusive constitutionalism of the Democratic Party -- Lincoln, the Constitution, and the birth of human rights.

Lincoln and the Democrats describes the vexatious behavior of a two-party system in war and points to the sound parts of the American system which proved to be the country's salvation: local civic pride, and quiet nonpartisanship in mobilization and funding for the war, for example. While revealing that the role of a noxious 'white supremacy' in American politics of the period has been exaggerated - as has the power of the Copperheads - Neely revives the claim that the Civil War put the country on the road to 'human rights', and also uncovers a previously unnoticed tendency toward deceptive and impractical grandstanding on the Constitution during war in the United States.
