History

A nation divided, a war between brothers, and immense political and social consequences—the American Civil War is certainly one of the most famous conflicts in world history.

Everyone has heard of the bloody conflict that cost the lives of over one million people. When people think of the Civil War, they think of Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the North-South divide between the American states, but there is so much more to uncover about the American Civil War.

This audiobook will dive into the details of the Civil War and explore what caused it, how it unfolded, and its short- and long-term consequences.

You will discover the following in this audiobook:

• The socio-political situation of 19th-century America before the war • Roots of the problem of slavery • Abraham Lincoln and the creation of the Republican Party • The infamous North-South divide • Causes of secession and the beginning of the war • Main actors on both sides, including Ulysses S. Grant, Jefferson Davis, and Robert E. Lee • Military campaigns that shaped the four-year-long war • The influential battles of Gettysburg, Chancellorsville, Vicksburg, and Fredericksburg • The passing of the Emancipation Proclamation • The assassination of President Lincoln
