Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the political crisis that gripped the United States in the run-up to the Civil War as pro-slavery states moved to secede and establish the Confederacy. The author presents a detailed account of the events, drawing on official correspondence and diplomatic exchanges, including letters written by General Winfield Scott, who was in charge of the US army at the time. The author explores the individual actions of Scott and President Buchanan, and the complex relationship between them, as Scott anticipated the Southern secession movement and repeatedly tried to persuade Buchanan to reinforce forts in the Southern states to prevent attacks. The book also examines the broader political climate of the time, including the influence of secessionist politicians and the failure of attempts to negotiate a peaceful resolution, presenting a nuanced analysis of the lead-up to one of the most pivotal conflicts in US history.
