Sumario:"The Age of Reconstruction: How Lincoln's New Birth of Freedom Remade the World" by Don H. Doyle explores the international impact of the Civil War and Reconstruction era. The book argues that there were two reconstructions, domestic and international, and highlights the global influence of the Union's victory and the end of slavery in the United States. Doyle's research delves into the reactions to Lincoln's assassination, America's role in promoting republicanism in the western hemisphere, and the rise of self-government movements in Europe. The book challenges previous interpretations of American diplomacy post-1865 and offers valuable insights for scholars interested in the global repercussions of republican government and emancipation.
