In his new book, Civil War historian Samuel W. Mitcham Jr. challenges the conventional view that slavery was the main cause of the Civil War, suggesting instead that economic factors played a central role. Drawing on 19th-century sources, Mitcham questions the standard narratives often taught in schools, offering a fresh perspective on the conflict's origins.
