Part III is the famous treatise Lincoln and Fort Sumter by Charles W. Ramsdell proving with fascinating scholarly detail that Lincoln deliberately started the war in Charleston Harbor to prevent the economic collapse of the North, which was well underway.

The current  obsession with slavery as the "cause" of the war rests not on evidence but on ideological considerations of the present day. Gene Kizer has provided us with the conclusive case that the invasion of the Southern States by Lincoln and his party (a minority of the American people) was due to an agenda of economic domination and not to some benevolent concern for slaves. This book is rich in evidence and telling quotations and ought to be on every Southern bookshelf." Clyde N. Wilson Emeritus Distinguished Professor of History University of South Carolina "Gene Kizer persuasively shows how the North fought the South out of necessity to prevent economic collapse. No where else is proof of this motive made clearer with indisputable evidence. Mr. Kizer writes with authority from the desire to tell the truth. His common sense style is the product of honesty. One cannot read his work without concluding that this is a man to be trusted."
