"Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man's nature--opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow." (Abraham Lincoln) [1]
During the 1850's in the United States, Southern ...

Medicine in the Civil War
When the Civil War began in April 1861, medicine was approaching what Surgeon General William Hammond called "the end of the medical Middle Ages." In Europe, the work of Koch and Pasteur was just beginning and American physicians had little knowledge of the cause and prevention of disease and infection. The Army Medical Department, which was responsible for the care of the sick and wounded in the North, was unprep ...

Literally thousands of books have been written on the single subject, or some detail of the subject of the American Civil War. I do not propose to write another one here. I cannot expect to entirely do justice to an event in American history which defined us as a people and redefined the country as a Nation, rather than as a mere experiment ...

The Civil War for Kids
The students in Mrs. Huber's class at Pocantico Hills School in Sleepy Hollow, New York have been learning about the Civil War. We read about this important time in our nation's history and wrote about it. We made a timeline of important events from 1860 to 1865. Our bar graphs contain data about the North and the South in 1861 when the Civil War began. Each graph compares the resources of the two regions. We looked at Civil War battle victories, used our mapping skills ...

First of all, I feel the need to point out that there never was a civil war in the USA. By definition, a civil war is where 2 or more factions are fighting for control of the same government. The War For States' Rights was not about control of the US government, but about our desire to govern ourselves as an independent nation. That desire still remains strong with us.
That having been said, I have put down as much information about the War For State's Rights as I have on hand, and ...
