Publisher's Synopsis
The Copperhead: A Story In Four Acts is a book written by Frederick Landis. It is based on his previous work, From The Glory Of His Country, and tells the story of a man named Abner Beech who is a Copperhead, a term used to describe Northerners who opposed the American Civil War. The book is divided into four acts and follows Abner's journey as he faces challenges and conflicts with his family, friends, and community due to his political beliefs. The story is set in the mid-19th century and provides a vivid portrayal of the political and social climate of the time. The Copperhead is a thought-provoking and engaging read that explores themes of loyalty, patriotism, and the consequences of standing up for one's beliefs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
