Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE 1863 Southern Rebellion CIVIL WAR Confederate SLAVERY Battles Maps Dred Scott 2v “The Southern Rebellion” by William Augustus Crafts is a comprehensive account of the political and military history of the United States focusing on the onset of President Buchanan’s administration through the Civil War. Drawing upon official documents and authentic sources, the book traces the deep-seated roots of the rebellion, highlighting the long-standing determination of some factions to establish a Southern Confederacy, a goal rooted largely in protecting the socio-economic interests of the Southern aristocracy which was grounded in slavery. While charting key political discourses and military events, including notable battles such as the bombardment on Fort Sumter and policies like the Dred Scott decision, the work underscores the complex dynamics between the North and the South, chronicling how tensions over slavery and state rights escalated over years, finally culminating in the Civil War. Profusely illustrated with nearly 50 steel engravings derived from original designs and photographs, the book is not just a historical record but a visual document that brings the era to life, offering readers a nuanced understanding of a tumultuous period in American history.
