Discover the story of the first official battle of the American Civil War, the First Battle of Manassas, in this captivating book on what transpired on that fateful day of July 21st, 1861.The causes of the American Civil War, which lasted from April 1861 to May 1865, were many and complex. At the heart of the disagreement, however, was slavery. The Southern states of the newly formed but illegal Confederacy were prepared to fight the US federal government to the death to retain their right to keep slaves for their plantations. The election of President Abraham Lincoln in late 1860, whose open intention was to abolish slavery, created a military upheaval south of Washington, DC, and civil war ensued.Although other attacks and skirmishes between the North and South occurred before the summer of 1861, it was the First Battle of Manassas (also known as the First Battle of Bull Run) on July 21st of that year that marked the first official engagement of the long war to come. Unfolding in northeastern Virginia, not far from the American capital, seventy thousand men met across the Bull Run River, equally divided between their loyalties to Washington and Richmond—the Confederacy’s capital. The armies were the largest raised by America until that time, but most of the soldiers were “green” and untried. Both Northerners and Southerners alike had rushed into the engagement, both overconfident and underprepared. On that fateful day, men, who had until so recently been friends and allies, fought against one another to the bitter end because their leaders were not prepared to negotiate on their ideals.Although the South was victorious at the First Battle of Manassas, in truth, over the course of the four-year-long bloody and destructive Civil War, everyone became the loser.In this book, you will learn: Why the American Civil War began.What events led up to the First Battle of Manassas.Who the main characters of Manassas were.What transpired over the days surrounding the battle.The outcome and consequences of Manassas. How Manassas was one of the first causes that defined the course of American history.Scroll up and click the “add to cart” button to learn more about the First Battle of Manassas!

Every time I receive a new book from captivating history I am amazed at all the things I’ve learned. I didn’t know that when the first shots were fired at Bull Run that the south didn’t even have real Confederate soldiers yet or that if it wasn’t for the three day delay we probably wouldn’t have lost dispersed battle and essentially cause the time for enlistment to go from 90 days to three years. Not to mention causing the federal government to spend much more than they thought they would in the beginning. So much for this being a quick in and out teach him a lesson and go back home kind of thing. When I read stories of these brave men on both sides I think how sad it is in our society today that pride for your country and for those who fought in the past is being lost on our children. Instead of respecting those who did stand up for wrongs and make them right, they’re being taught to focus on the wrong and demand solutions today. Not to mention when you look back in history you have to remember these people lived in their time and not ours. So to judge them by the stands as of today or just ignorant. I love the stories of great men and women doing great things and fighting for the underdog. Yes the Civil War like all wars were fought for many reasons but ending slavery was one of them. That is why the Wisconsin West battalion’s motto was if there was a man left in slaved I do not have a heart in this fight. This wasn’t an addendum it wasn’t a PS it was their motto. So if people at that time knew they were freeing slaves then why are people today confused about it? This was a great book and I highly recommend it to anyone and although I went a bit off topic reading this book made me think of all the people who lost their lives to fight for the underdog and of course they believed in and those same people are being totally disrespected today it makes me sad. That is why I am so glad captivating history isn’t going to let these great stories die. War isn’t pretty but you have to meet people where they are… Not where do you want them to be yes we are intelligent people, but not everyone solves problems with words. This is a great book about the first battle of Manassas and it is a book I highly recommend.
