The opening of this volume presents a detailed exploration of the political situation leading up to the Civil War. It begins with "The Situation," an analysis of the conspiracy against the national integrity of the United States, spotlighting figures like John C. Calhoun and the South's ambitions. The author discusses how both the Southern conspirators and Northern abolitionists were entrenched in their positions, ultimately neglecting the ramifications of their actions on the nation's unity.
