Book excerpt: The War of 1861-65 was waged so that a theory could triumph - the Story-Webster theory of a consolidated nation made up of the people of the United States in an aggregate capacity. However, a triumphant theory is far from a proven fact. Another excellent work by Dr. Bledsoe, this book does a fine job of answering the question, "Was secession a constitutional right previous to the War of 1861?" and demonstrates how a false premise can never lead to a true conclusion, no matter how much effort - or blood - is spent to bring it to that end.

Book excerpt: Historian and constitutional scholar Albert Taylor Bledsoe considers whether the secession of the Confederate states was legal under constitutional law. The author poses the question: did Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederate States of America, commit treason by initiating the secession and thereby igniting the nation on a path to Civil War? Over the course of a lengthy analysis, Bledsoe justifies the actions of Jefferson Davis as lawful. Considering arguments both for and against Davis as a traitor, we are taken through a series of proposals that quote the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Federalist papers. Upon reading and explaining a multitude of passages, the author arrives at the conclusion that states can lawfully leave the Union if they so choose. Bledsoe goes further in his arguments, saying that the Founding Fathers may have envisaged the prospect for conflict and schism between the north and south.

Bledsoe goes further in his arguments, saying that the Founding Fathers may have envisaged the prospect for conflict and schism between the north and south. The notion that the Constitution is a 'northern' document inclined to favor the north and undermine the south, even as the south grew in population, is floated. A notable defender of the southern states, Albert Taylor Bledsoe strongly supported slavery and would defend it as a necessary institution for an orderly society. After the South lost the Civil War, Bledsoe continued to espouse his ideas in a periodical known as the Southern Review, which would gain some popularity among those still supportive of the Confederate cause.

Excerpt: ...so she could unmake it as to herself only. That is, she had no power to destroy the Federal Union, but only to withdraw from it, and let it move on in its own sphere. In the exercise of her original, inherent, indivisible, and inalienable sovereignty, she merely seceded from the Union to which hej had acceded, and asked to be let alone. But she could not escape the despotic, all-devouring Lie, by which her sovereignty had been denied, and her rights denounced as "a pestilential heresy." Nay, by which she had been stripped of her character as a State, and degraded to the rank of a county. Was that the purpose for which, as a sovereign State, she entered into "the more perfect Union?" See chap. xv.. "No man," says Mr. Webster, "makes a question that the people are the source of all political power There is no other doctrine of government here." This is conceded. The people make, and the people unmake, Constitutions. This is the universally received doctrine in America. It is asserted by Calhoun as strenuously as by Webster. But the Constitution was made by the people of the several States, each acting for itself, and bound by no action but its own. Hence, as each State acceded to the compact of the Constitution, so each State may, if it choose, Secede from that compact. If the premise is true, the conclusion is conceded; and the premise has been demonstrated. In acceding to the compact of the Constitution, each State made the Union as to itself; and, in seceding therefrom, it unmakes the Union only as to itself. And it does so by virtue of its own inherent, and inalienable sovereignty. If it should be said, that the people of the several States made, but.cannot unmake, the compact of the Constitution as to themselves; it would follow that...

This book was released on 1866 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The sole object of this work is to discuss the right of secession with reference to the past; in order to vindicate the character of the South for loyalty, and to wipe off the charges of treason and rebellion from the names and memories of Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson, Albert Sydney Johnston, Robert E. Lee, and of all who have fought or suffered in the great war of coercion. Admitting, then, that the right of secession no longer exists; the present work aims to show, that, however those illustrious heroes may have been aspersed by the ignorance, the prejudices, and the passions of the hour, they were, nevertheless, perfectly loyal to truth, justice, and the Constitution of 1787 as it came from the hands of the fathers"--Preface.
