Book Description
"Rebels in the Making narrates and interprets secession in the fifteen slave states in 1860-1861. It is a political history informed by the socio-economic structures of the South and the varying forms they took across the region. It explains how a small minority of Southern radicals exploited the hopes and fears of Southern whites over slavery after Lincoln's election in November of 1860 to create and lead a revolutionary movement with broad support, especially in the Lower South. It reveals a divided South in which the commitment to secession was tied directly to the extent of slave ownership and the political influence of local planters. White fears over the future of slavery were at the center of the crisis, and the refusal of Republicans to sanction the expansion of slavery doomed efforts to reach a sectional compromise. In January six states in the Lower South joined South Carolina in leaving the Union, and delegates from the seceded states organized a Confederate government in February. Lincoln's call for troops to uphold the Union after the Confederacy fired upon Fort Sumter in April 1861 finally pushed the reluctant states of the Upper South to secede in defense of slavery and white supremacy"--

Book Description
Excerpt from Chronicles of the Rebellion of 1861: Forming a Complete History of the Secession Movement From Its Commencement The events connected with the Secession movements of the Southern States, and which roused the people of the North. American continent to the highest state of political excitement, will be long held in remembrance. The spectacle of a people so happy and prosperous living under a Constitution which it was their pride and boast to regard as the most glorious under the sun - a Constitution which, from the expansive character of its prin ciples and provisions, conferred upon its citizens a greater amount of political power, and secured to them 'a larger ex tent of civil and religious liberty, than the subjects of any other government - repub lican or monarchical - plunged into all the dire calamities, the horrors and the sufferings of Civil War, is painful in the extreme. But the ultimate result must be beneficial to the country at large. Although its commercial progress may be arrested in its onward career, and the de v010pment of its agricultural, manufac turing and mineral resources, for a time be neglected, the Constitution and laws will come out of the fiery ordeal purged and purified of every corruption which time has attached to the governmental system of the United States.
