Sectionalism In Virginia From 1776 To 1861 (1910)

""Sectionalism in Virginia from 1776 to 1861"" is a historical text written by Charles Henry Ambler in 1910. The book examines the political, social, and economic divisions that existed in Virginia during the period leading up to the American Civil War. Ambler explores how regional differences and competing interests among Virginians led to tensions and ultimately contributed to the state's decision to secede from the Union in 1861. The author analyzes the role of slavery in Virginia's sectionalism and how it affected the state's political and economic systems. Ambler also examines the impact of national events, such as the Missouri Compromise and the Dred Scott decision, on Virginia's sectionalism. The book provides a detailed account of Virginia's political and social history during this period and sheds light on the complex factors that contributed to the state's decision to join the Confederacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
