Hardback. Condición: Good. A FEATURED ALTERNATE SELECTION OF THE CONSERVATIVE BOOK CLUBNo honest student of American history can avoid coming to terms with this work.-Clyde N. Wilson, distinguished professor emeritus of history, University of South CarolinaA provocative book challenging the actions of one of America's most beloved presidents.-WMOT-FM 89.5, Middle Tennessee Public RadioIn this comprehensive volume, John Avery Emison sets the record straight on the legality of Southern secession. He laments the unnecessary loss of 620,000 lives, the burning of cities, and the mass devastation to the South wreaked between the years of 1861 and 1865 by the North. A close examination of the true causes of the Civil War reveals that the fight was not one for racial justice but rather a battle over the economic disparities between the North and the South. By illustrating how Abraham Lincoln's tyrannical presidency paved the way for today's Leviathan government, Emison brings his subject into the twenty-first century and puts forth his fear for the future.Contrary to contemporary assumptions, secession was-and still is-within the rights of all states. The concept of sovereignty grants such powers to the states, not to the federal government. Emison explains the list of violations Lincoln committed in an effort to prevent the South's peaceful exit from the Union. These atrocious actions include blockading ports, arresting innocent citizens, suspending habeas corpus, suppressing newspapers, and, most notably, ordering a gruesome war without consent from Congress.Against a historical backdrop, the author credits the events and political figures that contributed to Lincoln's election. He references significant Supreme Court doctrines and delves into the depths of the US Constitution. Emison's arguments are backed by the analyses of notable legal historians such as Kenneth Stampp and Carl Wittke.…

Paperback. Condición: New. The nation's environmental policy approaches and methods are becoming more flexible and diverse, with state governments composing the fulcrum of policy changes. Southern environmental politics and policy are especially valuable when considering a changing environmental policy landscape because they present a contradiction of caution and innovation. This caution derives from the South's well-documented traditional culture while this innovation crosses geographical, pollution media, and intergovernmental levels. Environmental protection in the South must take this paradox into account if progress is to be successful.This book studies Southern environmental policy and politics in order to understand the concrete realities of the Southeast and extend those realities' understanding to other regions of the country. It analyzes a series of cases that describe the state of environmental policy implementation and management in the South. These case studies cover a range of environmental areas, including air quality, drinking water and wastewater, brownfields, collaborative environmental management, and environmental justice, among others. These cases explore the diversity and flexibility which compose the dominant characters of environmental management today.…
