Eighth Grade End of War Work

From Chapter Thirteen, please read the section on Opposition to the War (pp 600-602) and the Final Phases of the War (pp 607-613) and answer the following questions like the scholar:

  • Who were the Copperheads?
  • Why were there draft riots?
  • Why was Lincoln worried he would lose the election in 1864?
  • What was Sherman's 'total war'?
  • Where did Lee surrender, and what were the terms? Why do you think Grant chose those terms?
Due tomorrow.
