A solid economic and political survey on Lincoln's war. It addresses the question of why America was the only country that ended slavery through war. The argument is that Lincoln was more concerned with centralizing power and destroying state's rights rather. It shows Lincolns innate racism and desire to send free blacks to Liberia or Haiti or anyplace except America. He also was an enthusiastic dictator who encouraged his generals to commit war crimes in the south.
