Civil War Patriotic Cover We Will Still Be One Union Verse. Civil War-era patriotic cover with an elaborate floral border surrounding a small vignette and the verse, “By our common kindred tongue, / By our hopes—bright, buoyant, young; / By the tie of country strong / We will still be one.” An unusual Union-themed design emphasizing shared nationality and preservation of the country. Unused and original.
While many Civil War patriotic covers relied upon martial images of soldiers, weapons and battle, others promoted the Union through appeals to common heritage, national identity and reconciliation—making the sentiment on this example particularly representative of the period.
