I have been a Civil War history buff for years, reading Catton and Foote and other histories.
It is my humble opinion that the driving force behind Secession was SLAVERY.
It is argued that it was "States' Rights".
The South fought for the States'right to own slaves. Period.

REL, had he fought for the North, would have saved many lives had Lincoln let him. Lincoln effed around with several incompetents before he found Grant.
