Thought Questions:
1. In his inaugural address in 1861 Lincoln said, “I have no purpose, directly or
indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the states where it exists.” The
Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863. Explain why and how this
marked change of policy took place.
2. “The Civil War was a second American Revolution that significantly transformed the
social, economic, and political fabric of the nation.” Assess the validity of this statement.
3. When considering the outcome of the Civil War, is it more accurate to say that the
North won or that the South lost?
