About this product

Product Information

"In recent years a highly industrious school of historians has begun asking whether the war should have been fought at all and whether it was perhaps not more the fault of the North than of the South. Seeking to revise earlier judgments they have become known as the revisionists, and one of the most gifted and studious of them all is Avery Craven, whose The Coming of the Civil War . . . is one of the landmarks of revisionist literature."--Bruce Catton, American Heritage ". . . those who would examine the democratic process during a period of progressive breakdown, in order to understand the dangers it embodies within itself, will find The Coming of the Civil War a classic analysis."--Louis D. Rubin, Jr., Sewanee Review "The book has always been recognized, even by its most severe critics, as a work of consummate scholarship."--T. Harry Williams, Baton Rouge Morning Advocate

  • Superb history--no one can understand the Civil War without it.

    Superbly researched book (1942) by an anti-slavery Quaker gentleman from Iowa who doesn't allow his personal beliefs to obscure the realities of history that he uncovers. His historical recordings and analysis place the developing pre-war tensions into luminous perspective. Anyone who mistakenly believes the war was only about slavery is firmly advised to read through this. For example, the initial Congressional authorization for use of Federal troops against the South developed during the Nullification Crisis (a tax issue), many years before Fort Sumter. The defeated South wrote few history books about the war, leaving that to Northern "historians" with their own biases. This book is an unflinching reassembly of reality, a MUST READ for any American who wishes to understand our ...
