This is why I wish John Brown had been succesful in his goal of arming slaves for a rebellion. A succesful slave uprising would have been far more effective at ending slavery and preventing the failures of the reconstruction era.

Thats not how it introduces the text book. It says on the top its chapter 10.
American History Chapter 10: Civil War?
as in Chapter 1 is the discovery and founding of America?

In no way does the text book sympathize with slave owners. It just explains a bit of history about someone who was forced to free her slaves.

Kids dont like learning. Its tedious by the time they get to middle school, if not earlier.

Leading your Civil War chapter with the perspective of a plantation owner who "regretted" that freed men now demanded high wages kinda sets a certain tone, don't you think?

You should take a road trip to visit SomeLikeItHoth. He lives in Nebraska or Kansas. I can't remember which one of them is just north of Oklahoma, so the one that is fewer frances away from you

I don't think what they wrote (the first image) is bad. But it's an extremely focused in view on one side, which is strange for the start of the chapter on the war. UNless the next page/paragraph literally jumps right into someones letter from the other side, then that would work, I suspect that does not happen

I did a few years schooling in Louisiana. There was a strange amount of time spent rehashing debates about how the Louisiana Purchase was a morally correct choice, consistution be damned, and also dont forget our American Indians were cannibals so don't feel bad about that whole manifest destiny thing.

Louisiana schooling was hell.
