Judging from the back cover, looks like some reheated neo-Lost Cause analysis with some contemporary anti-academic tropes. I think I'll pass.

Don't tell this, as you're making advert.
I'm defending none, as both North and South were slavers. Abolition was just an economical tool against the South. North more needed waged europeans colons for its industries than slaved africans prisoners they used as confort service work.
But the South, like the North needed the "free" slave-waged europeans in factories, South needed the slaves for paysant work in fields.
So abolition, sacrifice their own actual slavery, was a win for the North to tame the South.
If they could, North had kept their own slaves.
