Sample Solution
Apostles of Disunion ch.4: the Alabamians Apostles of Disunion: Southern Secession Commissioners and the Causes of the Civil War is a historical account of the secession movement in the antebellum Southern US written by Charles B. Dew. Alabama was central to the Civil War, with the secession convention at Montgomery, birthplace of the Confederacy, inviting other states to form a Southern Republic, during January-March 1861, and develop constitutions to legally run their own affairs. From the words of the secession commissioners, Dew concludes that irrational fears of three imminent horrors: racial equality, race war, and miscegenation, spurred secession. By February 1, seven Deep South states had left the Union. Alongside these secessions, Alabama`s commissioners redoubled their efforts to complete their mission and to bring the rest of the slave South into the fold (51).
