The American Civil War and Hawai'i

In 1959, Hawai'i became America's 50th state--but 100 years earlier, Hawai'ians still had a keen interest in the brewing tensions within the U.S. When Civil War broke out, Hawai'i felt the impact. Author Paul Taylor joins the Emerging Civil War Podcast to talk about the influence of the American Civil War on the Pacific island kingdom--and the war's fingerprints we can still see there today.

Plus: a sneak-peak at Paul's upcoming book, "'Tis Not Our War: Avoiding Military Service in the Civil War North," coming in June from Stackpole Books.
