Quote by Joseph Addison Beck

“… As the years went by, the principal reason for the Civil War – to preserve slavery – gradually became an unacceptable reason for the War, and the loss of such a War all the more unacceptable. … Loss of such a War by men who were gallant but vastly outnumbered – the loss by an agrarian culture to a predatory industrial juggernaut – became an acceptable loss.”
