Présentation de l'éditeur
The vindication of the Southern States for their Ordinances of Secession in 1861 involves two considerations, namely: their rightful power to withdraw from the Union into which they had entered by voluntary compact; and the causes that justified the exercise of that power. In treating this question in its twofold aspect, the legal and the moral, it is not intended to vex the weary ear by adducing time-worn arguments ;but, believing the case to be one which must be adjusted finally by historical facts, the candid reader is asked, without favor or prejudice, to make a decision on the unquestionable record. The British Colonies of North America subsequently the United States had a common allegiance to the British Crown. Otherwise they were as distinct from one another as they were from Canada, Nova Scotia, and the American islands owned by Great Britain. When, by the violation of both charter and inalienable rights, for which neither redress nor security against repetition could be obtained, some of the colonies decided to sever their connection with the British Crown, they formed an alliance, declared themselves free and independent States, and, with their united strength, made such vigorous resistance to the efforts of the Mother Country to reduce them to subjection that, finally, a Treaty of Peace was made, in September, 1783, in the following words: Article I.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : 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.
