• It was one of the riskiest political moves in American History given the timing.
• Jan. 1, 1863 Lincoln issues official Emancipation Proclamation to boost morale of Union army which has suffered numerous defeats
• Although it freed no slaves, it turned the war into a crusade and kept European nations from recognizing and allying themselves with the CSA
![Page 24: APUSH Lecture Ch. 14](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051101/5877fbb81a28ab91178b5bcd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Inflation Cripples the South• “$100 for a barrel of flour”
• CSA bank rolls the war by issuing war bonds for people to buy
• Most of CSA’s capital was tied up in land and slaves (and cotton) and very few had the cash available to purchase bonds. CSA bank notes also dropped in value.
• CSA continued to print treasury notes to try to compensate for low value but this only worsened the problem.
• April 2, 1863 bread riots break out in Richmond, VA equal in volume to that of the draft riots in NY
