The American Civil War In 9 pages the author discusses the American Civil War. There was nothing 'civil' about the Civil War, which is also known as the War Between the States.

Juveniles During The American Civil War A 6 page research paper on juveniles coming of age during the American Civil war.

Causes Of The American Civil War A 5 page paper. Slavery is most often cited as the cause of the American Civil War but like any war, there were a number of underlying causes besides the issue of slavery. The Northern and Southern states had been in conflict since before the Constitution was signed in 1789. A number of formal compromises had eased the tension but it began to flare up again in the early 1800s. This paper discusses the three primary reasons for the tension between the North and the South. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Gettysburg: The Turning Point Of The American Civil War 7 pages in length. When President Abraham Lincoln spoke the words of the Gettysburg Address on November 19, 1863, he fully understood the detrimental impact such a civil war had waged upon the constitutional proclamation for democracy. For a country that espoused benevolence and compassion, the United States had entered into one of the bloodiest battles ever to be recorded throughout history. The turning point for the American Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg, one conflict of many that stood out as instrumental in eventually bringing the war to a close. However, this may not have been the case had Robert E. Lee not assumed principal position during this, the bloodiest fight of the entire American Civil War. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

8.

Baseball During The American Civil War 5 pages in length. Baseball during the American Civil War represented everything that the war did not: It was a way in which soldiers and ranking commanders could return being just men as much as it was critical time spent regaining one's mental and emotional balance amidst overwhelming conflict. Albert Doubleday - a name synonymous with baseball - was a Civil War General who, historians have determined, was not the original founder of America's most popular sporting game. That notwithstanding, Doubleday's involvement in baseball's Civil War presence is what has come to represent the start of a national tradition. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

9.	How the South Lost the American Civil War This 9 page report discusses the many aspects associated with the Confederacy loss of the Civil War. Economics, strategies, social problems all contributed to the loss, as well as the attitudes of the "Old South." Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Bruce Levin/Reasons for the American Civil War A 3 page research paper that uses Levine's 1992 text as a guide in discussing the principal reason behind the American Civil War. Levine demonstrates that given the inconsistencies between the regions in the antebellum North and South, war was inevitable and the slavery question could not have been decided any other way. Levine's scholarship demonstrates how the 1861 conflict evolved out of tensions that were left unresolved by the American Revolution. No additional sources cited.

11.

Historiography/Northern Women in American Civil War A 9 page research paper that discusses this topic. This area of historical study can be divided roughly into several categories, as there are books that detail the role of Northern women as nurses; abolitionists; spies; and as actual soldiers. The historiography of Northern women's involvement in the war is too vast to be addressed in a report of this limited length. Therefore, this discussion looks at works representing the early era of this historical endeavor and then at recent works that are representative of contemporary research into this aspect of American history. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

12.	Progress Comes at a Price: American Civil War A 3 page paper which illustrates how progress always comes at some price and how this can be seen in the history of the American Civil War. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
