What Were They Fighting For?

What Were They Fighting For? series.
A dry but informative text provides a broad overview of the Civil War. Captioned black-and-white photos and occasional sidebars complement the basic explanation of what motivated the North and the South to go to war. Upper-elementary and middle school students will find the book useful for reports. Reading list, timelime. Bib., glos., ind.
