This study is the first to critically survey the changing and
highly controversial historical literature surrounding the American
Civil War era, from contemporary interpretations up to the present.
The racial question was one of the central causes of the war; there
was recognition of the need for America to conform wholly to the
Declaration of Independence that "all men are created equal." The
book both analyzes historians' attitudes and assumptions, and
suggests that each writer's perspective was partly determined by
the dictates of time and place.
