It also had a lot of southern sympathizers during the Civil War I believe. Reminds me, I’m finally reading Doris Kearns Goodwin’s Team of Rivals in anticipation for Lincoln. Wow, really good book. 19th century history usually isn’t my cup of tea but this is a great book. Coming away liking Seward the most of the “rivals” so far. Still a big Abe fan though, how could one not be?
