A nation divided, a war that shaped the future of the United States—what were the true causes and consequences of the Civil War? The American Civil War (1861–1865) was one of the most defining moments in U.S. history. Fought between the Union (North) and the Confederacy (South), the war was driven by deep divisions over slavery, state rights, and economic interests. This book explores key battles such as Gettysburg and Antietam, the leadership of figures like Abraham Lincoln and Robert E. Lee, and the impact of the Emancipation Proclamation. The war ultimately led to the abolition of slavery but left lasting scars on American society. Reconstruction efforts sought to rebuild the South, but racial tensions persisted. If you want to understand the struggle that defined American identity and shaped its future, this book is essential.
