Clement Vallandingham
Sep. 20, 2023
When the Civil War broke out, President Abraham Lincoln’s leading political antagonist in the North was none other than the congressman from Dayton. In an utterly unique event, he was thrown out of the country because of his views. He was then nominated for governor by the Democratic Party. That led to a unique and historic 1863 election that riveted the attention of Ohioans and of Lincoln. This presentation by Martin Gottlieb is based upon his book Lincoln’s Northern Nemisis: The War Opposition and Exile of Ohio’s Clement Vallandigham. |
