THE DEMON OF UNREST covers the pivotal five months from Lincoln's election to the start of the Civil War, and the new president's efforts to avert the inevitable. Larson, a true master storyteller, had access to diaries, secret communications, slave ledgers and plantation records to give readers this horror story with a focus on a Southern former slave owner, loyal to the Union and a vain, bloodthirsty radical set on destroying the country.
