President Lincoln Did Manipulate The Confederate States Into Firing The First Shot
[ send me this paper ]
16 pages in length. Lincoln's participation in � and the ultimate outcome of - the American Civil War has long been heralded as a watershed in United States history. That slavery was finally looked down upon in the eyes of the law spoke to a social and cultural enlightenment never before known to either the blacks or whites. Moreover, the extent to which Lincoln led the country to an entirely different way of thinking with regard to the aspect of human rights was grand and far-reaching. However, not everyone is convinced that his involvement in the American Civil War was as clean and candid as the history books would like one to believe, inasmuch as speculation concurs how President Lincoln did manipulate the confederate states into firing the first shot at Fort Sumter.
