Today educated individuals know that Abraham Lincoln didn't "preserve
the Union" or "abolish slavery." What then is the true legacy of his
war? As award-winning historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook reveals in
his poignant bestselling pictorial, The Unholy Crusade, it was
Lincoln's illegal, unnecessary, and merciless destruction of the South
and her people.
As proof, Colonel Seabrook provides hundreds of 19th-Century photos and
drawings of the North's four-year demolition of Dixie, ranging from the
ransacking and burning of thousands of private Southern homes and
businesses, to the bombing of countless mills, factories, trains, ships,
roads, depots, forts, docks, bridges, warehouses, communications,
churches, banks, and even cemeteries. Southern libraries, universities,
hospitals, livestock, and even family pets were wantonly destroyed by
Union troops as well. And let us not forget the many incidents of the
unlawful arrest, abuse, torture, rape, and murder of scores of innocent
Southern civilians - of all ages and races.
Why? What did this overt Yankee terrorism, this mindless ruination of
the South, have to do with saving the country or emancipation? This
emotionally powerful, lavishly illustrated book answers the question!
The Unholy Crusade is a must-read for all those interested in the
truth behind Lincoln's War on the Constitution and the Confederacy. Like
Colonel Seabrook's many other Civil War books, this well-researched,
historically accurate work includes a descriptive introduction, copious
notes, an extensive bibliography, and a comprehensive index. Destined to
become an American classic. Available in paperback and hardcover.
