Winner Of The Coral Horton Tullis Memorial Book Prize And A Certificate Of Commendation From The American Association For State And Local Historyin The Early Morning Hours Of October 1, 1862, State Militia Arrested More Than Two Hundred Alleged Unionists From Five North Texas Counties And Brought Them To Gainesville, The Seat Of Cooke County. In The Ensuing Days, At Least Fortyfour Of The Prisoners Were Hanged, And Several Other Men Were Lynched In Neighboring Communities. This Event Proved To Be The Grisly Climax Of A Heritage Of Violence And Vigilantism In North Texas That Began Before The Civil War And Lasted Long Afterward.Until Relatively Recently, A Legacy Of Silence Restricted Historical Writing On The Great Hanging. In The First Systematic Treatment Of This Important Event, Richard B. Mccaslin Also Sheds Much Light On The Tensions Produced In Southern Society By The Civil War, The Nature Of Disaffection In The Confederacy, And The American Vigilante Tradition.
