  • ""Man Without a Country" is a short story by American writer Edward Everett Hale, first published anonymously in the Atlantic Monthly in December 1863. The novel is the story of American army lieutenant Philip Nolan, who renounces his country during a trial for treason and is consequently sentenced to spend the rest of his days at sea without so much as a word of news about the United States. Although the story is set in the early 1800s, "Man Without a Country" is an allegory about upheaval of the American Civil War and was intended to promote the Union cause. As Edward Everett Hall intended, "Man Without a Country" created significant support for the U.S. as a country, identifying the priority of the Union over the individual states, and thus pressuring readers to view Southern succession negatively. In so doing, he convinced many individuals to join, or at least support the North's effort to, as Abraham Lincoln put it, "preserve the Union.""
