America goes to war the Civil War and its meaning in American culture

by Catton Bruce

Synopsis

The Civil War was the first of world's really modern wars. That is what gives it its terrible significance. For the great fact about modern war, greater even than its frightful destructiveness and its calculated, carefully-applied inhumanity, is that it never goes where the men who start it intend that it shall go.
