Apparently the message was that the North was willing from the beginning to sell its soul for victory, they just didn't have to until late in the war.

I read the statement the same way you did. It was either that or concede.

If anyone sold their soul, it was the South, they seceded for slavery.

Didn't know this before.

Came across it looking for something else on Lee.
