DESCRIPTION
Did you know that . . .
• American slavery got its start in the North?
• the American abolition movement began in the South?
• most Southern generals did not own slaves, and many, like Robert E. Lee, were abolitionists?
• many Northern generals, like U.S. Grant, owned slaves and said they would not fight for abolition?
• according to the 1860 Census a mere 4.8 percent of Southerners owned slaves, 95.2 percent did not?
• Abraham Lincoln was a white separatist who wanted to send all blacks “back to Africa”?
• Jefferson Davis adopted a black boy and freed Southern slaves before the North did?
• Lincoln was not against slavery, he was against the spread of slavery?
• Lincoln supported the idea of corralling African-Americans in their own all-black state?
• true slavery was never practiced in the South?
• the U.S. was originally known as “the Confederate States of America,” and that this is why the Southern Confederacy adopted this name for itself in 1861?
• Lincoln "won" both the 1860 and 1864 elections with less than 50 percent of the American vote?
• Lincoln was a big government liberal, Davis was a small government conservative?
• not only were there countless socialists and communists in the mid 19th-Century Republican Party, dozens of socialists and communists worked in the Lincoln administration (e.g., Charles A. Dana) and served in the Union armies (e.g., Carl Schurz)—many of them personal friends of Karl Marx, the founder of modern communism?
• there were tens of thousands of both black and Native-American slave owners?
• Lincoln started the Civil War, not the South?
• the North fought to "preserve the Union," not to abolish slavery?
• the South fought to uphold the original Constitution, not to maintain slavery?
• it would have cost ten times less to free the slaves and reimburse their owners than fight the War?
• the Northern armies were racially segregated, the Southern armies were racially integrated?
• after emancipation 95 percent of all blacks voluntarily remained in the South?
• between 300,000 and 1 million African-Americans fought for the Confederacy?
• Europe would have supported the South but she was scared off by Lincoln’s war threats?
• Northern prisons had higher death rates than Southern ones?
• the original Ku Klux Klan was an anti-Yankee organization with thousands of black members?
• “Reconstruction” was a dismal failure, which is why the South is still recovering from the War?

REVIEWS (SAMPLES)
AMAZON REVIEW, FIVE STARS: "A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!": “This should be one of the required books to read while in school. This book presents documented, unreconstructed facts and sheds so much light and truth on many commonly believed falsehoods. It is well written and a fantastic read.” - TIFFANY FLETCHERON
 
ETSY REVIEW, FIVE STARS: "The best overall 'Civil War' causes book to read. If you want to know the truth about Lincoln's War, this is the one! Seabrook dives into great detail to show that the North wasn't this perfect, God-led, and moral nation like we're taught they are. If this product had more stars to rate it as, I'd rate it so." - CANDICE
