Profiles in Civil War Conservatism – hinnat ja saatavuus

LEARN THE TRUTH ABOUT THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES & THE CIVIL WAR-ERA DEMOCRATIC & REPUBLICAN PARTIES IN THIS THOUGHT-PROVOKING VOLUME Profiles in Civil War Conservatism: 25 Southern Generals and Their Fight to Save the American Republic, by award-winning historian and bestselling author-artist Lochlainn Seabrook, is a unique, illustrated analytical study of Confederate military leadership examined through the lens of 19th-Century American conservatism, constitutionalism, and republican theory. Grounded in primary sources, period writings, military records, and political history, this focused volume presents 25 Southern generals (including Lee, Jackson, and Forrest) as historical actors shaped by inherited constitutional ideas rather than modern political labels. Each profile situates its subject within the legal, ideological, and cultural framework of the American republic as it existed in the mid-19th Century. Political party origins, their reversal, and their realignment are examined in detail, demonstrating that Democrats of the Civil War period embraced conservative principles, while Republicans advanced liberal principles, as those terms are defined today. Combining Seabrook's structured historical profiles with his original visual art, the book includes: - Twenty-five Southern generals selected for military significance, leadership influence, and ideological principle. - Concise examinations of each figure's background, command role, and constitutional outlook. - Clear discussion of states' rights, federalism, republican government, resistance to centralized power, and more. - Contextual treatment of Democratic (then right-wing) and Republican (then left-wing) Party ideologies as they existed in the mid-19th Century. - Vibrant illustrations presented in a consistent, dignified visual program. - A restrained, scholarly tone avoiding present-day political framing and retrospective moralizing. - A comprehensive introduction, index, bibliography, appendices, glossary, and notes to the reader. - Serves as a compact reference format suited for historians, educators, libraries, collectors, and serious readers of American and political history. Rather than approaching the Civil War as a purely military conflict or moral abstraction, Profiles in Civil War Conservatism restores political philosophy, constitutional interpretation, and leadership intent to the center of the historical narrative-allowing readers to understand why these 25 courageous Southern conservatives risked their lives in defense of the confederated American republic created by the Founding Fathers. Designed for long-term reference and repeated consultation, this in-depth beautifully illustrated volume reflects Sea Raven Press' commitment to evidence-based history, careful scholarship, and visual excellence.
