Book excerpt: While South Carolina's preemptive strike on Fort Sumter and Lincoln's subsequent call to arms started the Civil War, South Carolina's secession and Lincoln's military actions were simply the last in a chain of events stretching as far back as the early 1750s. Increasing moral conflicts and political debates over slavery--exacerbated by the inequities inherent between an established agricultural society and a growing industrial one--led to a fierce sectionalism which manifested itself through cultural, economic, political and territorial disputes. This historical study reduces sectionalism to its most fundamental form, examining the underlying source of this antagonistic climate. From protective tariffs to the expansionist agenda, it illustrates the ways in which the foremost issues of the time influenced relations between the North and the South.

Download or read book Teaching the Causes of the American Civil War 1850 1861 written by Michael E. Karpyn and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2020 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Civil War lasted from 1861 to 1865, killing nearly 700,000 Americans and costing the country untold millions of dollars. The events of this tragic war are so steeped in the collective memory of the United States and so taken for granted that it is sometimes difficult to take a step back and consider why such a tragic war occurred. To consider the series of events that led to this war are difficult and painful for students and teachers in American history classrooms. Classroom teachers must possess the appropriate pedagogical and historical resources to provide their students with an appropriate and meaningful examination of this challenging time period. Teaching the Causes of the American Civil War, 1850-1861 will attempt to provide these resources and teaching strategies to allow for the thoughtful inquiry, evaluation and assessment of this critical, complex and painful time period in American history.
Download or read book The Cause of All Nations written by Don H Doyle and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-12-30 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address in 1863, he had broader aims than simply rallying a war-weary nation. Lincoln realized that the Civil War had taken on a wider significance -- that all of Europe and Latin America was watching to see whether the United States, a beleaguered model of democracy, would indeed "perish from the earth." In The Cause of All Nations, distinguished historian Don H. Doyle explains that the Civil War was viewed abroad as part of a much larger struggle for democracy that spanned the Atlantic Ocean, and had begun with the American and French Revolutions. While battles raged at Bull Run, Antietam, and Gettysburg, a parallel contest took place abroad, both in the marbled courts of power and in the public square. Foreign observers held widely divergent views on the war -- from radicals such as Karl Marx and Giuseppe Garibaldi who called on the North to fight for liberty and equality, to aristocratic monarchists, who hoped that the collapse of the Union would strike a death blow against democratic movements on both sides of the Atlantic. Nowhere were these monarchist dreams more ominous than in Mexico, where Napoleon III sought to implement his Grand Design for a Latin Catholic empire that would thwart the spread of Anglo-Saxon democracy and use the Confederacy as a buffer state. Hoping to capitalize on public sympathies abroad, both the Union and the Confederacy sent diplomats and special agents overseas: the South to seek recognition and support, and the North to keep European powers from interfering. Confederate agents appealed to those conservative elements who wanted the South to serve as a bulwark against radical egalitarianism. Lincoln and his Union agents overseas learned to appeal to many foreigners by embracing emancipation and casting the Union as the embattled defender of universal republican ideals, the "last best hope of earth." A bold account of the international dimensions of America's defining conflict, The Cause of All Nations frames the Civil War as a pivotal moment in a global struggle that would decide the survival of democracy.

Download or read book The Origins of the American Civil War written by Brian Holden Reid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Civil War (1861-65) was the bloodiest war of the nineteenth century and its impact continues to be felt today. It, and its origins have been studied more intensively than any other period in American history, yet it remains profoundly controversial. Brian Holden Reid's formidable volume is a major contribution to this ongoing historical debate. Based on a wealth of primary research, it examines every aspect of the origins of the conflict and addresses key questions such as was it an avoidable tragedy, or a necessary catharsis for a divided nation? How far was slavery the central issue? Why should the conflict have errupted into violence and why did it not escalate into world war?

Download or read book Causes of the Civil War written by Philip Leigh and published by Shotwell Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2020-09-26 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE PRESENTLY DOMINANT NARRATIVE about Civil War causes is the work of historians obsessed with social activism instead o historical facts. They point to the 13th, 14th and 15th postbellum amendments as proof that the North was fighting to provide slaves with an honorable freedom but deny that the increase in tariffs from 19% before the war before to an average of 45% for fifty years thereafter reflected a Northern war aim. They hold Southern secession responsible for the war but fail to teach that the Northeastern states threatened to secede five times between 1789 and 1850. They also decline to note that Southern secession need not have led to war. Southerners had no purpose to overthrow the Washington government, they merely wanted a government of their own. Northerners could have evacuated Fort Sumter and let the first seven cotton states depart in peace thereby avoiding the war. Modern historians normally focus on the reasons the cotton states seceded instead of examining the economic reasons Northerner chose to militarily coerce them back into the Union thereby inaugurating civil war. The Republican Party could have stopped the spread of slavery peacefully by endorsing Popular Sovereignty during the 1860 presidential election. After Kansas used it to reject slavery in an 1858 local-option vote, nearly every politico realized that the doctrine would quarantine slavery in the South. If Popular Sovereignty could not make a slave state out of Kansas, it could not do it in any of the remaining 1860 Federal territories. Republicans rejected the doctrine simply to survive as an independent Party because Lincoln's two chief opposing presidential candidates supported it. Beyond what Poplar Sovereignty would have gained, the Republican ban added nothing except to inflame the sectional passions that led to civil war. * * * * * "Philip Leigh does not hesitate to challenge what Voltaire called 'The propaganda of the victorious. This work is not to be missed by any who are interested in the truth." - H. V. Traywick Author: Empire of the Owls and Virginia Iliad "Philip Leigh's new book gives readers hard, historical, economic facts showing that the causes of the American Civil War date back decades and were multi-layered. Read this book if you want a full understanding of what the war was really about." - Clint Johnson Author: Tin Cans and Greyhounds and The Politically Incorrect Guide to the South "For two generations mainline historians have taught that Southerners committed treason by seceding and virtuous Northerners invaded the South to abolish slavery. For many of America's elite this so-called truth has enabled them to support, or stand silent, as Confederate memorials are vandalized or removed. Phil Leigh's new book shows that the thesis is simply untrue." - Don Livingston, Ph.D. Author: Hume's Philosophy of Common Life and Philosophical Melancholy and Delirium: Hume's Pathology of Philosophy
