Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the Kansas Crusade: Its Friends and Its Foes The purpose of this book is to show by what agency Kansas was made a free State, and how this result has affected our national life. This triumph of the North was regarded by slave-holders as ample proof that there could never be another slave State in the Union. Hence came the attempt to secede, the Civil War, and the Emancipation Proclamation as "a military necessity." Hence came also an enduring national unity having no conflicting sectional interests. The great Kansas struggle was therefore the pivot on which this nation turned to a nobler development and to a higher and happier condition of all its people. The consequences of this triumph of freedom are becoming more and more apparent with each succeeding year. A period longer than is allowed for one generation of men has passed since this contest began - more than a quarter of a century has gone since it was ended. It may therefore be demanded why there has been so long delay in making public record of the methods which have brought us such beneficent results. The Civil War engrossed the attention of all the people for nearly five years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
