The War Between the States
America's Uncivil War


John J. Dwyer recently completed the rough draft for this penetrating narrative of the most dramatic period in American history. The contributing editors include several men--George Grant, Douglas Wilson, Steve Wilkins, and Tom Spencer--who have helped lead the resurgent classical Christian education movement that has risen up in the past twenty years. Dwyer serves as Author and General Editor of the book.


Comprehensive, learned, and beautifully presented. Every family in America--especially ones with school-aged children--should own it and study it."
--Thomas J. DiLorenzo, author of The Real Lincoln, Professor of Economics at Loyola College in Maryland

Judicious, clearly written, suffused with Christian knowledge and understanding, it stands out a mile from other accounts of the War Between the States and Reconstruction.”
--William Murchison, Senior Columnist, The Dallas Morning News

“A magisterial account of a tragic story that most Americans have yet to confront.”
--Donald W. Livingston, Professor of Philosophy, Emory University

“Dwyer makes a host of good points and has a well-designed and well-carried out scheme in this book. It is a greatly useful work.”
--Clyde Wilson, Professor of History, the University of South Carolina
