Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book of historical writings examines the political and social ideals of the American Civil War and its relevance to American society at the time. The author uses this framework to discuss the rhetoric of the time, the military and political objectives of each side, and the continuing debate over secession. The author also draws parallels between themes in the American Civil War and broader themes in the study of history, politics, and war, such as the nature of heroism, the limits and potentials of nationalism, and the importance of morality and human dignity in times of violent upheaval. The writer argues that the American Civil War has served as a litmus test for the nation's ideals, and that its study can help us better understand the complexities of honor, courage, and the sacrifices made in the name of country.
