The Outbreak of the Civil War
The ten years preceding the outbreak of the United States Civil War in 1861 marked some of the most tumultuous and chaotic years in U.S. history. This anthology examines opposing viewpoints on two of the major issues of that, the growing conflict over slavery and the secession crisis, and looks at some of the major causes and consequences of the Civil War.

Review: The Outbreak of the Civil WarAs with books in the long-running Opposing Viewpoints series, the excerpts here clearly express opposing opinions on an issue...The effect of the entire volume is to create an informative, many-sided representation.Booklist, May 2002RL
