We have had a lot of discussion at our club meetings in recent months
about role Slavery played in the Civil War. Some call it a primary
cause of the war. Others say the war wasn't about slavery at all. It
was about States' Rights, or the Preservation of the Union, or some
other issue.

What are your thoughts? What role did slavery play in the Civil War?
