Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Four Addresses: Historian General, United Daughters of Confederacy; 1911-1916
South, and history if accepted as it is written, will consign the South to infamy.
Who is responsible for the South's unwritten history? Surely we cannot blame the northern historian. His duty is and was to record the facts as they are given to him; and if we of the South have not given him these facts, how can we hold the historian of the North responsible? (applause). The fault we find with the northern historian, (of course there are a few exceptions, ) is not so much what he has said against us as what he has omitted to say. (applause).
Unless we, Daughters of the Confederacy, will look into this matter and see where the trouble lies we will still have this history untrue to us. As long as the Book Trust controls our Boards of Education and northern text-books continue to be used in southern schools to the exclusion of southern text books, we will realize that the history of the South will never be known to the coming generations. (applause).
