History, it's said, is written by the winners. Thus, one must look
long and hard to find an account of the Civil War from the South's
perspective. What was the primary cause for their secession and
rebellion? When fewer than one in seven that fought owned slaves it
was clearly not to preserve the institution. Why then? The reader
may find it interesting that the South's president, Jefferson Davis
-- from whose 1890 book "A Short History of the Confederate States
of America" introductory chapters are included -- likened the
South's struggle for independence with the country's break from
Britain four score earlier. Written in 1895 for younger audiences,
"History of the War for Southern Independence: The Story of the
Confederate States" offers a rare perspective on what the North
called "The Great Rebellion." Handier than the free PDFs on the
web, this you can hold, bookmark, highlight and shelve. An
inexpensive imperative for any history buff.
