DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Letter to His Excellency Whitemarsh B. Seabrook, Governor of the State of South-Carolina: On the Dissolution of the Union Sir, - It will not be thought presumptuous in any man respectfully to submit his opinions to your consideration, on a subject so important, as the dissolution of the Union. - Even they who have been most scrupulous in abstaining from all participation in the ordinary discussions of party politics, will need no apology for freely examining a question, in which not the success of party or persons, but the destiny of the whole country is deeply involved. It is proposed to destroy the Confederacy of the United States. The people have so long and uninterruptedly enjoyed the beneficent influences of this crowning mercy to the wisdom and virtue of our ancestors, that they no longer appreciate the blessing, and are in danger of testing its value by its loss. They have lived in the healthy atmosphere of peace and prosperity which it diffuses around them, as they breathe the vital air, without a thought of how essential it is to their existence. We would destroy that which all other people similarly situated are craving to possess. The best men of Italy and Germany, taught by our example, have been long laboring and hoping to obtain this great remedy for intestine dissention, and aggression from abroad. United Italy, United Germany, are the day dreams of Italian and German Patriots. To realize them, they freely peril fortune and life. Until they can be realized, they see no hope for Italy or Germany. But we upon whom Providence has bestowed this pearl of great price, are willing to cast it away and trample it in the mire.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbout half of today’s nation-states originated as some kind of breakaway state. The end of the Cold War witnessed a resurgence of separatist activity affecting nearly every part of the globe and stimulated a new generation of scholars to consider separatism and secession. With the approach of the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War, this collection of essays allows us to view one of the bloodiest conflicts over secession in modern history within a broader international context. The contributors to this volume consider a wide range of topics related to secession, separatism, and the nationalist passions that inflame such conflicts. The first section of the book examines ethical and moral dimensions of secession, while subsequent sections look at the American Civil War, conflicts in the Gulf of Mexico, European separatism, and conflicts in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. The contributors to this book have no common position advocating or opposing secession in principle or in any particular case. All understand it, however, as a common feature of the modern world and as a historic phenomenon of international scope. Some contributors propose that “political divorce,” as secession has come to be called, ought to be subject to rational arbitration and ethical norms, instead of being decided by force. Along with these hopes for the future, Secession as an International Phenomenon offers a somber reminder of the cost the United States paid when reason failed and war was left to resolve the issue.
Mastering America

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMastering America recounts efforts of "proslavery nationalists" to navigate the nineteenth-century geopolitics of imperialism, federalism, and nationalism and to articulate themes of American mission in overtly proslavery terms. At the heart of this study are spokesmen of the Southern "Master Class" who crafted a vision of American destiny that put chattel slavery at its center. Looking beyond previous studies of the links between these "proslavery nationalists" and secession, the book sheds new light on the relationship between the conservative Unionism of the 1850s and the key formulations of Confederate nationalism that arose during war in the 1860s. Bonner's innovative research charts the crucial role these men and women played in the development of American imperialism, constitutionalism, evangelicalism, and popular patriotism.
