Acerca de esta escucha

Former Confederate President Jefferson Davis penned "The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government" in 1881, offering a historical perspective and justification for the Confederacy's formation and actions during the Civil War. While serving as a valuable primary source for understanding Confederate leadership's motivations, the work is also recognized for its biased defense of the Confederacy and its "Lost Cause" narrative.

This is interesting if you’re studying he historical details of the confederate government. However Mr Davis spends long periods trying to justify banal actions and often at the expense of his generals. There was nearly a chapter spent trying to prove he didn’t order a halt to the pursuit at first Manassas, with subtle jibes at Johnston all the while. The same tedium was employed explaining his government’s right to raise armies and not militias. Probably the most annoying part was his hypocritical insistence that the Confederacy was a sovereign nation AND that the Union was unconstitutionally invading it. Sorry you can’t have it both ways.

This is a name-clearing polemic

It's reads more like a legal brief: President Davis obviously was a very well educated man, he gives a legal argument for the leaving of the South from the Union. There are many historical facts listed. Not having a legal background it was hard for me to follow.

not what I expected
