A Short History of the Confederate States of America (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously examines the causes that led to the secession of the Southern States in 1861. Drawing on historical records, the author demonstrates that it was not a single issue, such as slavery, that caused the conflict, but rather a complex array of political, economic, and social factors. The author delves into the decades-long struggle between the North and South over issues such as the extension of slavery into new territories, the balance of power in the federal government, and the increasing hostility towards the South from the North. The book provides a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the events leading up to the Civil War, challenging simplistic narratives and offering a deeper exploration of the complexities of the period. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330333082_0
