Reviews
Winner of the 2001 Fletcher Pratt Prize from the Civil War Round Table of New York "This incisive history should dispel the pernicious notion that the Confederacy fought the Civil War to advance the constitutional principle of states' rights and only coincidentally to preserve slavery."--Allen D. Boyer, New York Times Book Review "Dew has produced an eye-opening study.... So much for states' rights as the engine of secession."--James M. McPherson, New York Review of Books "This is an important study, meticulously researched and convincingly argued."--James Oliver Horton, author of The Landmarks of African American History

Synopsis
Charles Dew's Apostles of Disunion has established itself as a modern classic and an indispensable account of the Southern states' secession from the Union. Addressing topics still hotly debated more than a century and a half after the Civil War, the book offers a compelling and clearly substantiated argument that slavery and race were at the heart of America's great national crisis., Charles Dew?s Apostles of Disunion has established itself as a modern classic and an indispensable account of the Southern states? secession from the Union. Addressing topics still hotly debated among historians and the public at large more than a century and a half after the Civil War, the book offers a compelling and clearly substantiated argument that slavery and race were at the heart of our great national crisis. The fifteen years since the original publication of Apostles of Disunion have seen an intensification of debates surrounding the Confederate flag and Civil War monuments. In a powerful new afterword to this anniversary edition, Dew situates the book in relation to these recent controversies and factors in the role of vast financial interests tied to the internal slave trade in pushing Virginia and other upper South states toward secession and war., Charles Dew's Apostles of Disunion has established itself as a modern classic and an indispensable account of the Southern states' secession from the Union.
