This history of mob violence in antebellum America explores the two distinct reactions such violence produced. In the South, widespread rioting quelled both the public and private questioning of slavery; in the North, milder, more controlled riots generally encouraged sympathy for the anti-slavery movement. Grimsted shows that in these opposing reactions we can clearly see traces of the social division that ultimately led to the Civil War.
