One man, Abraham Lincoln, was the sole cause of the War Between the
States, l861 - 1865, and the deaths of almost one million
Americans. Honest, compassionate and kind hearted, but forthright
to an extreme, Lincoln spoke for millions of Americans who detested
slavery, and wanted to eradicate it, and for millions more who
wanted to preserve the Union upon confronting the secession of
eleven southern states By calling for 75,000 volunteers, men to
defend the Union immediately following the attack in Charleston
Harbor, Lincoln knowingly inflamed the situation. The war was on.
Lincoln wanted it. He also knew that it could have been avoided, it
could have been settled amicably without the loss of any men from
the North or the South. Lincoln knew that the U.S. Constitution was
silent on the issue of secession, that there was then, as there is
now, absolutely nothing in the Constitution that prevents any state
or any number of states, from peacefully leaving the Union. REVIEW:
