Illinois: A History by Richard J. Jensen,
Richard J. Jensen treats Illinois as a microcosm of the nation, arguing that its history exhibits basic conflicts that had much to do with shaping American society in general. Northern reformers in Illinois were intent on remaking the state in their image: middle-class, egalitarian, urban, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and progressive. These values clashed with the patriarchal supremacy prairie state college chicago heights illinois and intense loyalty to kin prairie state college chicago heights illinois and ken by which the people of southern Illinois, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and the South, organized their lives. When the Civil War broke out, sympathy for the Confederacy ran high in southern Illinois. Although the region officially supported the Union, guerrilla bands terrorized Unionists, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and in Charleston a full-scale riot against Federal troops erupted in 1864. The Union victory decisively shifted both the nation prairie state college chicago heights illinois and Illinois toward faster modernization. In Chicago, violence became more bureaucratized -- in the form of syndicates, racketeering, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and high-level, bipartisan political corruption -- prairie state college chicago heights illinois and racial tensions more dangerous, as spectacular race riots, industrial violence, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and gang warfare rocked the city. Throughout the state, localism eroded with the onslaught of chain franchises, consolidated schools, prairie state college chicago heights illinois and homogenized suburbs. Jensen extends his discussion to the emergence of newer, postmodern conflicts that continue to occupy the people of Illinois. Without neglecting the high-profile individuals prairie state college chicago heights illinois and events that put the Prairie State on the map, Jensen offers an innovative, wide-angle view that expands our perspective on Illinois history.
