Amazon.com Product Description
The Civil War: Two Views enables you to study the bloody and terrible conflict that settled the issues of slavery and union but left unhealed scars in the nation. A straightforward presentation of the issues on both sides--North and South--helps students understand how political, economic, social, regional, and moral considerations led inexorably to the Civil War. The narrative incorporates the ideas of major figures, detailed maps, political cartoons, and the songs and ballads of the time.
