Understanding the War Between the States
Understanding the War Between the States is a supplemental booklet by 16 writers that enables a more complete and truthful study of American history among young but diligent and inquisitive students in Middle School, teenage students in High School, young men and women in College and adults beyond those years. Consisting of 40 concise chapters, beginning with the Colonial era of North America, moving to the Revolution and the establishment of the United States of America, it proceeds into westward expansion to the Pacific Ocean. But at that point in American history the northern cultures and southern cultures clash in a horrific political sectional contest over how powerful should be the country's Federal Government. The consequence is political sectionalism in the Northern States, giving rise to the Republican Party and the election of Abraham Lincoln and Republican governors throughout the Northern states. Secession of 7 southern states takes place, President Lincoln contrives a pretext for launching a war of subjugation and conquest against the non-Republican southern States. After 4 years of horrific war, even "total war." the Federals prevail. A process of political reconstruction ensues, a process for the Federal Government to become all-powerful is launched and the limited government promised by the American Revolution is lost to memory. State Rights declines into a faint memory of days long ago, everywhere, North South and West. In only 88 pages, our Society has produced the most concise, complete and readable history that has ever been created for the purpose of imparting a truthful understanding of the War Between the States.
