Excerpt from The Causes of Secession In a broad view of American history the War of Secession between American states may be regarded as one of the struggles of anglo-saxon people for independence, individual liberty and local self-government. A very fine interpretation of American history is to be found in a small volume con sisting of a series of lectures delivered by Henry Van Dyke in France, on The Spirit of. America. This book might well be used as a text in our high schools and colleges and would furnish a key to a comprehensive understanding of the movements in American history from the earliest settlement to the present time. I am persuaded that the people of the Northern and Eastern sections of our republic are equally de voted with the people of the South to the principles of local self-government and individual liberty, which is but another way of expressing the doctrine of States' Rights with the exception of secession. I am quite sure any feeling of hostility towards the people of those sections no longer exists, and that there is the same love for the ideals of the Federal Republic among the people of the South that there was when our independence was achieved and when we joined with people of other sections in erecting a Federal Government to promote the general welfare and to provide for the common defense.

Excerpt from Political History of Secession: To the Beginning of the American Civil War The preface to a volume like this is usually the last and the hardest thing to write. I have repeatedly rewritten this, in a vain effort to make it satisfactory to myself. I do not propose to expand it by telling what the book is about, or to apologize for writing it. The title and table of contents sufficiently indicate its general character. I have endeavored in a volume of moderate size to give a concise history of the development of the causes, of which slavery was the chief, but not the only one, that culminated in the Civil War.

Excerpt from Rebellion and Recognition: Slavery, Sovereignty, Secession, and Recognition Considered Whenever, therefore, matters are carried to far as to produce a civil war, foreign powers ms assist that party which appears to them to have justice on its side. He w 0 assists an odious tyrant - havwho declares foran unjust and rebellious [maple-violates his duty. Before recognition can be entertained at all, the juslmm of the cause of the people seeking to be recognised, even in its limited sense, must first be ascertained. This necessarily involves an inquiry as to what are the causes of the rebellion of the slave states. It is evident that the reasons assigned by the leaders and appointed chiefs of the insurgents will include all the causes. To those, then, we refer for the evidence required, and if on that evidence a just cause he not found, surely the claim fails.

Excerpt from The Confederate Secession In submitting the pages that follow to the judgment of the public, I feel that I am bound to preface them with a few words of apology, both for themselves and for the period of their appearance. They have taken much longer in the writing than would appear at first sight. A practised writer could probably have completed them in a week or ten days. I could under no circumstances have done that; but had there been nothing to hinder, I could, no doubt, have finished them much more quickly than I have done.

Excerpt from Cheever, Lincoln: And the Causes of the Civil War The following paper was read at a meeting of the American Antiquarian Society in Boston, April 15, 1936 - the seventy-first anniversary, as it happened, of the death of Lincoln. It recites the main facts of the life of the aboli tionist clergyman, George Barrell Cheever, and the train of events, with Cheever's part in them, which led to the election of Lincoln, secession and the Civil War. At that time there was no business rivalry in the North against the South and no economic questions divided the sections. The question of the rightness or wrongness of holding people in slavery was the only source of the heat which precipitated the war; which, therefore, was an exception to the rule now widely accepted that wars always take their origin from the interplay of eco nomic forces. This rule also overlooks the wars, producing factors of personal, national and racial ambitions, as well as the reactions of patriotic, pacifistic and religious emotionalism which those ambitions engender.

Excerpt from Virginia's Attitude Toward Slavery and Secession N o attempt has been made to present the causes which precipitated the secession of the Cotton States, nor the states which subsequently adopted the same policy, except Virginia. Even in regard to that commonwealth the effort has been limited to the consideration of two features prominent in the public mind as constituting the most potent factors in determining her action - namely, devo tion to slavery and hostility to the Union. That the people of Virginia were moved to secession by aselfish desire to extend or maintain the institution of slavery, or from hostility to the Union, are propositions seemingly at variance with their whole history and the interests which might naturally have controlled them in the hour of separation. Yet how widespread the impression and how frequent the suggestion from the pen of historian and publicist that the great and compelling motives which led Virginia to secede were a desire to extend slavery into the territories and to safeguard the institution within her own borders, coupled with a spirit of hostility to the Union and the ideals of liberty proclaimed by its founders. To present the true attitude of the dominant element of the Virginia people with respect to these subjects is the work which the author has taken in hand. As cognate to this purpose the effort has been made to show what was the proximate cause which influenced the great body of the Virginia people in the hour of final decision. There were unquestionably many and widely severed causes - some remote in origin and some imme diate to the hour, yet it may be safely asserted that but for the adoption by the Federal Government of the policy of coercion towards the Cotton States, Virginia would not have seceded. That was the crucial and determining factor, which impelled her secession. She denied the right of the Federal Government to defeat by force of arms the aspiration of a people as numerous and united as those of the Cotton States to achieve in peace their independence. She believed that such a course and the exercise of such a power on the part of the Federal Govern ment, if not actually beyond the scope of its powers as fixed in the constitution, were clearly repugnant to the ideals of the Republic, and subversive of the principles for which their Fathers had fought and won the battles of the Revolution. Upon the question, shall the Cotton States be permitted to withdraw in peace, or shall their aspira tions be defeated by force of arms, Virginia assumed no new position. She simply in the hour of danger and sacrifice held faithful to the principles which she had oft times declared and which have ever found sturdy defenders in every part of the Republic.

Excerpt from The War in America: Being an Historical and Political Account of the Southern and Northern States; Showing the Origin and Cause of the Present Secession War Although we have endeavoured to be impartial in the presentation of facts, yet we are sure neither the fanatics of the north, nor the fire-eaters of the south, will be pleased with the expositions we have made. He who does not sustain their respective destructive policies is censured; and such, no doubt, will be our inevitable fate. We are a native of Virginia. In youth our play-grounds were upon the banks of bull-run: and as we loved our country then, so we do now; and we shall continue to cherish the hope for its common weal. We trust that a new govern ment will be framed - one that will prevent the success of sectionalism, Whether in the north or in the south.
