it was about slavery, whether we like it or not.

Okay, I'll say this one more timeREAD THE BOOK!!

It's out in the stores, it's quite documented, and it reinforces past research that it was NOT, I repeat NOT over slavery!! Makes you question how slavery was ended throughout the Western Hemisphere peacefully everywhere else EXCEPT the US. The only other place there was a war, supposedly over slavery, there was a political motive, and slavery was used as an excuse there as well

If you read the states, "Declaration of Secession", you will learn that the states did leave because of slavery.
