The Myth of the Lost Cause: Why the South Fought the Civil War and Why the North Won

The former Confederate states have continually mythologized the Southâ€™s defeat to the North, depicting the Civil War as unnecessary, or as a fight over statesâ€™ Constitutional rights, or as a David v. Goliath struggle in which the North waged Â“total warâ€ over an underdog South. In The Myth of the Lost Cause, historian Edward Bonekemper deconstructs this multi-faceted myth, revealing the truth about the war that nearly tore the nation apart 150 years ago.
