Publisher's Synopsis
""The Secession Movement in North Carolina"" by Joseph Carlyle Sitterson is a historical book that explores the events leading up to the secession of North Carolina from the United States during the Civil War. The book examines the political, economic, and social factors that influenced the state's decision to secede, including the debate over slavery, states' rights, and the role of the federal government. Sitterson provides a detailed account of the secession convention held in Raleigh in May 1861, as well as the subsequent military and political actions taken by North Carolina during the war. The book also delves into the experiences of North Carolinians during the conflict, including the impact of the war on the state's economy, society, and culture. Through extensive research and analysis, Sitterson offers a comprehensive look at one of the most significant events in North Carolina's history and its role in the broader context of the Civil War.Additional Editors Are Mitchell B.
