Stephens — Vice President of the Confederacy — and in The War Between the States, he delivers a monumental, two-volume firsthand account of the conflict that tore a nation apart. Written from the perspective of a principal Confederate statesman, this sweeping work presents the Southern constitutional argument with rigorous legal and historical detail, arguing that the war was fundamentally a struggle over states' rights rather than a simple moral confrontation, placing the reader directly inside the political and ideological machinery of the antebellum South and the Confederacy itself.\n\nStephens writes with the authority of an eyewitness and the conviction of a deeply principled constitutionalist, chronicling the events leading to secession, the formation of the Confederate government, and the prosecution of the war with unflinching candor. His prose is dense, analytical, and unapologetically partisan — making The War Between the States an essential, if controversial, primary source for any serious student of Civil War history. Reprinted by Sprinkle Publications in a handsome two-volume clothbound edition, this work remains one of the most significant — and provocative — defenses of the Confederate cause ever committed to print, demanding engagement from anyone who seeks to understand the full complexity of America's most defining conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572410159323,"sku":"2026100011142-SECONDHAND","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/076d2532-b730-4142-9eb6-244a1ceceeb9.png?v=1791166488","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011142-secondhand-the-war-between-the-states-two-volume-set","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
