Antebellum: The Long Road to Sumter Volume 1

Antebellum: The Long Road to Sumter Volume 1

George Edward Parris Phd

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
This is Volume 1 of a three-volume set of books. There have been many books written about the War (1861-65). The starting point for most of these books has been war-time and immediate post-war propaganda and rationalization of the Northern view of the War. Generally, the theme has been to glorify Abraham Lincoln and discredit the Confederacy. Unfortunately, this theme has been most simplistically followed in public school textbooks and even college-level general history books. By the 21st Century, American students (North and South) have been so thoroughly brainwashed over several generations that there is a public outcry to erase all Confederate iconography. But the facts are out there, and I have spent over two years trying to understand why the southern States seceded from the Union and why there was a War. Let me make it clear at this point, that my focus here is the antebellum period. The War was a bitter and disastrous defeat for the South and in that painful post-war period the relationships among southerners (European and African) changed drastically and there have been events that no southerner can be happy about. The point is that, the War (not the antebellum South) produced many of the ugly racial stereotypes that dominate social and political discourse today. In my firm opinion, if there not been a War, things would be much different and much better.An element in this story is the near complete self-absolution of the North from (i) any responsibility for slavery in North America; (ii) any role in provoking secession of the southern states; (iii) any role in initiating the War; (iii) any criminal conduct during the War; and (iv) any role in provoking racial bias and conflict in the post-war South. This book only deals with items (i) and (ii).A few books have appeared that consider these facts from a southern viewpoint. Unfortunately, most of them are personal essays that only appeal to southerners who already hold these views. In this book, I hope to provide the tools and data that will convince reasonable people of the opinions I have formed from my research. In particular, roughly 40% of the 700 pages of this book are verbatim copies of original historical documents. I do not expect my readers to believe me. I want you to read the documents and draw your own conclusions and if you think I have manipulated the documents, please refer to the citations I have provided.Finally, I have already written and published a book describing the events between the election of Abraham Lincoln (November 1860) and the exchange of cannon fire at Fort Sumter, Charleston, South Carolina (April 1861). I now, do not regard these events are the initiation of the War, it need not have done that. What I now see is that the best title for the War is "The War to Prevent Southern Independence." This name was coined by Charles T. Pace and if you read this book, I think you will find justification for the view that I now take.

Magick Without Fear: the Gerald Suster Letters
Gerald Suster (1951-2001) can be considered one of the most important occultists of the late-20th century. A prolific writer, esteemed historian and advocate of Thelemic Magick, he is best known for his biographies of Aleister Crowley (The Legacy of the Beast) & Israel Regardie (Crowley's Apprentice). Often described as a somewhat controversial and provocative character, Gerald made best use of these attributes in his published books and writings, employing common sense and wit to demolish all preconceived notions of what Magick is and how it might be utilised to further advance and accelerate human evolution. This volume comprises of the full collection of personal letters he wrote in correspondence with occult student George T. Mortimer, spanning over eight years from 1992 until near his death at the beginning of 2001. They reveal an exclusive insight into this unique and complex character, and will undoubtedly be of value to anyone engaged in studying the occult arts from a Thelemic & Crowleyan standpoint.

Major Robert Anderson at Fort Sumter

Major Robert Anderson at Fort Sumter

Eba Lawton

Applewood Books

pokkari
"A soldier true to his standard and an American true to his country." On the fiftieth anniversary of the defense of Fort Sumter, author Eba Anderson Lawton, Major Anderson's daughter, recounts the story of her father's command of Fort Sumter at the start of the Civil War. Kentucky-born Major Robert Anderson was the commanding officer of the Union Army troops in Charleston, South Carolina when the state became the first to secede from the Union in 1860. Remaining loyal to the Union and without orders from Washington, Anderson surreptitiously moved his men from the hard-to-defend Fort Moultrie to the more substantial Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor. Lawton recounts how the men spent months in the fort under siege, with no reinforcements and no provisions. On April 12, 1861, at the command of Confederate President Jefferson Davis, Confederate artillery fired on Fort Sumter, marking the beginning of the Civil War. Ten thousand rebel forces lined up against the sixty Union troops. On April 14, after a valiant fight that lasted 34 hours, Anderson accepted terms of evacuation and left with his men, saluting, lowering, and removing the American flag. He sailed for New York City, where he was met with great appreciation for the stand he had taken. Major Anderson returned to Charleston on April 14, 1865, where he raised over the ruins of Fort Sumter the flag he had lowered four years earlier. That same night, Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in Washington, D.C.
