Synopsis
Secession Speeches: Articles, Speeches, and Letters on Secession, January 1860–April 1861, edited by D. Jonathan White, is a compelling historical compilation that brings together rare primary source documents from one of the most turbulent periods in American history. Spanning the critical sixteen months leading up to the Civil War, this collection presents speeches, newspaper articles, and personal letters written by southerners grappling with the question of secession as a political remedy. Featuring one item per month, the anthology draws from voices across the South — from Virginia to Texas — and represents a wide political spectrum, from passionate fire-eaters to reluctant secessionists pushed toward disunion by what they described as 'the madness of the hour.' Published by Lord Bedford Publishing in 2025, most of these documents have not appeared in print for over one hundred and sixty years, making this an invaluable resource for historians, students, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the events and debates that shaped the nation on the eve of the Civil War.

Soft cover. Etat : New.

These show a range of southern views on secession. There is generally one article or speech per month and authors were from across the South, from Virginia to Texas.
