Of course it was. Anyone who says otherwise is being obtuse, ignorant or silly.
The irony of course is that the overwhelming percentage of the Northerners did not have any great moral outrage at slavery and the same overwhelming percentage of the Southerners would never own a slave.
What is the old quote...? "Rich man's war, poor man's fight."
