The United States Since The Civil War is a comprehensive history book written by Charles Ramsdell Lingley. It covers the period of American history from the end of the Civil War in 1865 to the early 20th century. The book analyzes the major political, social, economic, and cultural developments that took place during this period, including the Reconstruction era, the Gilded Age, the rise of industrialization, the Progressive Era, and the emergence of the United States as a global superpower.The author provides a detailed account of the major events and personalities that shaped American history during this time, including the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant, the growth of the railroad industry, the rise of the labor movement, the Spanish-American War, and the presidency of Theodore Roosevelt. The book also explores the impact of these developments on American society, including the struggles of African Americans for civil rights, the growth of urbanization, and the changing role of women in society.Overall, The United States Since The Civil War is a rich and detailed account of a critical period in American history. It provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the major trends and events that shaped the country during this time, and offers insights into the challenges and opportunities that faced the nation as it emerged as a global superpower.The enthusiasm which the independent Republicans were manifesting for Cleveland was balanced by the hostility of elements within his party. As Governor he had exercised his veto power with complete disregard for the effect on his own political future. He had, for example, vetoed a popular measure reducing fares on the New York City elevated railroad, basing his objections on the ground that the bill violated the provisions of the fundamental railroad law of the state. He was opposed by Tammany Hall, led by John Kelley, who declared that the labor element disliked him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
