Problem: American History
Many believe that the Civil War was fought because of slavery: that both sides were so dedicated to the end (North) or continuation (South) of slavery, that each was willing to sacrifice its citizens as well as dissolve the Union for the cause. Given what we have learned via the lecture and documents, is this true? What was/were the cause/s of the Civil War?
You must give evidence to support your thesis and connect cause and effect. For example, if rainwater was a cause of the Civil War, why or how did it cause it?
The response must include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, double-space, Times New Roman 12 pnt font and APA style of writing and citations.
