"The Great Conspiracy, Volume 3" by John Alexander Logan is a historical deep dive into the events leading up to the American Civil War. The book explores the reasons why Southern states decided to break away from the United States, carefully examining the roles played by important people during this intense time. The author starts by explaining the long-term unhappiness of the Southern states with the U.S. government, pointing out that some people wanted to nullify federal laws or even secede from the very beginning due to issues like taxes and slavery. The book uses a mix of historical documents and personal stories to paint a vivid picture of why the South felt the need to secede, driven by what they saw as unfair treatment and a desire to be independent.
