Taking a Stand: Portraits from the Southern Secession Movement
Used Book in Good Condition
Until now few books on the Civil War era have adequately and fairly dealt with the Southern impulse for secession. Taking a Stand recounts the personal stories of how five Southerners came to their own individual decisions to abandon the Union. Thomas Cooper (1759-1839), Robert Bamwell Rhett (1800-1876), James Henley Thomwell (1812-1862), John Tyler (1790-1862), and John Adams Gilmer (1805-1868) - each in their viewpoint and experience represents a current in the movement that culminated in secession. Theirs is the compelling story of the birth of the Confederate cause.
