"Mr. Dowless argues and explains that the US Civil War was fought by segments of the nation that supported the imposition of a central bank, and laws designed to support bankers, corporations and their insider connections in the government to the detriment of the populace at large, against those Americans who advocated free enterprise and a light regime of laws that would allow and enable each citizen to prosper according to his abilities without undue taxation, licensing fees, and other laws geared to protect big corporations. Within that context, he shows that whereas the argument for and against slave holding was intentionally turned into an emotionally-driven moralistic argument, regrettably slave ownership was, up to the mid-19th century, the only economic choice to enable agricultural plantations attain economy of scale and thus produce a profit"--Provided by publisher.
