No doubt.
It is an unfortunate circumstance that tied states rights to continuation of slavery. That tie in - which was real - has morally hurt the cause of states rights ever since. The end product of the war was the immorality of slavery was undone at the Constitutional loss of states rights.
But, truly unbridled federal power would not really come into its own until the “progressive” era, with progressive presidents from Wilson through two Roosevelts and their judges, along with their combined massive advancement of the regulatory state surrendered with the abdication of Congress’ power over the executive. The amendment that changed the election of Senators from election by the state legislators to “popular” election helped consolidate federal power as well.
Lincoln was the first to massively expand Federal power, followed by Teddy, Wilson, FDR, Johnson, Carter, Clinton and Obama.
