A Return To Civilian Leadership: New Orleans 1865-1866, Arthur Wendel Stout

LSU Master's Theses

In the aftermath of the Civil War, southern cities such as New Orleans had to reconstitute local civilian government under extremely difficult circumstances.

Rousseau is usually counted among the opponents, and not the …
