Did Lincoln carry on the war for the purpose of freeing the slaves and weren t the Confederates fighting for slavery or the extension of slavery?
There are those who will tell you the War Between the States had everything to do with slavery and those who will say it had nothing to do with slavery. Issues of slavery were involved, but were certainly not the only reason for hostilities. The causes of the War Between the States are too complex now for our “instant-fast food schooling” systems. Students and teachers seem to want a short, quick, easy answer to complex situations. It is historically inaccurate to say that the war was fought to free the slaves. The evidence is entirely against that interpretation.
