What if Lee had avoided defeat at Gettysburg? What if a military
stalemate had developed, coupled with growing antiwar sentiment?
What if Lincoln had been defeated in the 1864 election and Great
Britain had recognized the Confederacy? What would have been the
careers of an independent Confederate States of America and a
defeated United States? "No historian has thought through such
'what if' questions as seriously as Roger Ransom," says the
Washington Post Book World. A master of historical analysis, Roger
L. Ransom follows the consequences of the "what if" scenario over
an extended period of time, exploring such issues as the fate of
slavery in a CSA, how the economies of the USA and the CSA would
have developed, and how their foreign policies would have differed.
The result is a fascinating historical vision that is a source of
insight into the critical events of the Civil War period as they
actually happened.
