Jackson personally opposed rioting, Grimsted was careful to say in 1972 and again in this book, but northern Democrats saw rioting as a useful means of placating their Southern political allies.
In another chapter, Grimsted credibly argues that northern rioting had the effect of persuading many northerners that slavery should be their concern too.
