Wood and Rakove. Right.
The filters favor your side, after 30 years of unemployable Marxists tunneling into the tenure system, most of whom probably agree with your agenda out of deference to Marx's own admiration of Lincoln, and so it's understandable you would want to leverage an asset: the high head-count of Wingy profs liable to agree with you on warring down the South.
Your posts concerning Wood suggest you haven't actually read Scalia's book. Am I mistaken?
It is easy for you to sit back and carp about sources, resources, and authorities. That's what ignorant whiners do. It is a concession on its face. You make ad hominem attacks rather than logically or reasonably deal with the issues.
You have posted enough about your scientific background that I have a pretty good idea you are capable of rational discussion. Those who have been schooled in the sciences usually are analytical by nature. You also understand the importance of the scientific contributions of recognized authorities.
Read this and divine for me Wood's politics:
