Adventures of  History Anne !
Which came first?  Thinking,  or Fiscal activity?

     “The epistemologists dealt with thinking  as if it were a separate field  cut off from other manifestations of human endeavor.”
[ The Ultimate Foundation of Economic Science. ]

     The “History Anne”  author of  the biography of  John C. Calhoun  American Portrait,  was  curious  to gain understanding.
Why do people choose to direct their activities toward Un-Civilized,  Cataclysmic Conflict?  Margaret L. Coit  asked  the  questions  and  searched for  evidence  which  revealed  why  Northern  and  Southern people  reviled  each other,  after  uniting  to  gain independence.

     Curiosity is the Prime Mover  of  the  “History Anne.”  Women have lost  their  heads  since  Anne Boleyn  failed  to  understand  why  people  sever  their  relations.  Margaret L. Coit  develops  the  theme  of  choices  by  John C. Calhoun,  which explain the  cataclysm  of  the  Civil War.  Begin with the experiences and choices which responded to these conditions,  and you will grasp the similarity to present conflicts.

     Why did leaders  such as John C. Calhoun,  Henry Clay,  Thaddeus Stevens,  congressman Justin Morrill  of Vermont,  and President Abraham Lincoln  proceed with a sequence of  decisions:  to ignite the inferno of  Northern Aggression  and  Southern Rebellion?

     “It  is  clear  that  the Morrill tariff  was  carried  in  the House  before  any  serious  expectation  of  war  was  entertained;
Charleston,  Fort Sumter

     What conditions aroused their passion of the leaders (and followers)  during those decades,  to slaughter two-thirds of a million soldiers,  and destroy the homeland of people who had united to free themselves from British taxation and domination?

     Why did the Southern states rebel,  not the northern states?  Is it possible that majority control of the federal legislature and senate  included control of military enforcement?  What policy could be enforced  to arouse such caterwauling and frenzy of secession,  which was entirely constitutional?

     Similar to the taxation authority of Britain,  inflicted on colonies such as India,  The authority to levy taxes on imported goods  was delegated by independent states,  to provide revenue to the Federal Government,  when the United States Constitution was ratified.

     Various questions are not asked in school classrooms (or elsewhere).  Which people brought slaves to this continent?  Was it primarily  Northern ship owners?  Or was it Southern businessmen?
     How did these slave importers get these slaves?  Were they skilled in jungle tactics?  Did they trap unsuspecting black people in a continent where a different language was spoken,  and the geography was as familiar to the white slavers,  as the French Quarter?  Not likely.
     What explains the concentration of slaves in the rural South,  and relative absence of slaves in the Northern states?
     Abraham Lincoln is celebrated as a great hero in the United States.  Slavery was abolished in most every other country,  excluding Japan,  during world war two.  What are the names of other leaders  who led the emancipation victors in the bloody struggles in these other countries?
