Today, with all the events that have occurred in the 20th century to improve race relations, this is the side that the American people support. The arguments that the southern states made in the 1800's in defense of slavery are known to be wrong and inhumane today. But that fact wasn't so clear back in the 19th century. Slavery in American history is usually associated with the 1860's, because that was the decade of southern secession and the Civil War. But the Confederate States of America and the Civil ...

The author also gives unbiased attention to both British and American views, as well as French views when appropriate. Draper sustains his belief that 1764 was the year marking the starting point of the pre-Revolutionary era throughout the novel. ...
