For those who are unable to wade past the shallow sandbars of American history in the modern world, there is often an irritating animus that quickly rises to the surface and that resents any attempt to challenge official interpretations of the American Civil War. However, upon closer inspection, those who really study history and the motivations of political movements would do well to examine the foundations of many popular myths and figures that were once more clearly recognizable as sectional versions of history but which now have been largely nationalized. Reflections on American history in the mainstream often rudely denigrate alternative visions of the significance of the war and the impact it had upon transforming the Constitution and the vision of the Founding generation of the United States. Never has there been a time when a true understanding and application of Southern political philosophy could be more crucial to the survival of our civilization or way of life, especially upon the global stage.
