The Civil War and the Constitution V1: 1859-1865 is a historical book written by John W. Burgess. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the American Civil War and its impact on the United States Constitution. It covers the period from 1859 to 1865, which was marked by the secession of the southern states from the Union, the formation of the Confederacy, and the subsequent military conflict between the two sides.The book discusses the political, social, and economic factors that led to the outbreak of the Civil War, including the issue of slavery, states' rights, and the election of Abraham Lincoln as president. It also examines the legal and constitutional issues that arose during the war, such as the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, the use of military tribunals, and the Emancipation Proclamation.Throughout the book, Burgess provides a detailed analysis of the constitutional debates and controversies that emerged during the Civil War. He explores the role of the Supreme Court, Congress, and the executive branch in shaping the course of the war and its aftermath. The book also includes a discussion of the Reconstruction era and its impact on the Constitution and the country as a whole.Overall, The Civil War and the Constitution V1: 1859-1865 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States, the Civil War, and the Constitution. It provides a thorough analysis of the key issues and events of the period, and offers insights into the challenges faced by the nation during this tumultuous time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
