The Civil War obliterated America's past, along with many of the
founders' visions of what America should be. Replacing those
visions was the America that we have today. Any true understanding
of America, both past and present, must include a specific
understanding of this conflict.
This work, with a thought-provoking introduction exploring the
true causes of the war, traces the entire story of the conflict in
a concise monthly summary. In addition to all the major events that
shaped the war, key facts that have disappeared from most
mainstream texts are also included, such as:
Both Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis lost young
sons during the war
The legendary Robert E. Lee faced intense southern criticism for
military failures in the war's first year
U.S. forces battled the Sioux Indians during the war, leading to
the largest mass execution in American history
A former Ohio congressman was banished to the South by Lincoln
for opposing the war
Facts are explored and myths are exposed as the conflict is put
in its proper chronological perspective. For anyone seeking a
general resource guide to the seminal event in American history,
this is required reading.
