Will ‘Mainstream’ Historian David Goldfield Be the Next Target . . .

June 25, 2012

. . . of the professional haters and libelers at the Southern Poverty Law Center? He recently published an essay based on his new book, America Aflame, that agrees with me, Clyde Wilson, Murray Rothbard, Donald Livingston, Marshal DeRosa, Brion McClanahan, Tom Woods, and other like-minded scholars on the subject of Lincoln and the War to Prevent Southern Independence.

Of course, neither Goldfield nor the New York Times, etc. will mention that he is merely repeating many of the things we have been saying for decades.
