Reader Art Kaufmann writes,
I just wanted to say that I've been enjoying your series on the reasons for the Civil War very much. It saddens me, though, that this is not merely an academic debate. Behind the questionable arguments and scholarship of men like Hummel lies the real belief that the Confederacy was right. It doesn't happen often, but I am always stunned when I run into someone in person who carries those views. It just shows that the Founders' work is not ever really finished.
