Though the Civil War is often examined using the simple binaries of North vs. South, Union vs. Confederacy, or blue vs. gray, it did not happen in a vacuum hidden from the eyes of the world. In fact, the war took place within the context of a period marked by nationalist struggles and global imperialism. As such, many countries were either directly or peripherally involved in ways that affected the geopolitical landscape during and after the war.

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
