Synopsis

There are two things that enemies of the traditional conservative South cannot tolerate: being faced with the facts and having their myths and lies about Lincoln’s War exposed. But if we are ever to learn the full and honest truth about the conflict, then exposed they must be.

In Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner! award-winning historian and author Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook sets the record straight in this easy-to-read, well documented handbook that confronts the North’s many falsehoods about the American Civil War - important facts the anti-South Movement has been suppressing for 150 years! Divided into convenient chapters, such as "Cause of the War," "Secession," "Slavery," "The Abolition Movement," "Jefferson Davis," "Abraham Lincoln," "The Emancipation Proclamation," "The Union and Blacks," "Yankee War Crimes," "Prisons," and "The Confederate Flag" (among many others), this bestselling exposé of Yankee anti-South propaganda has the power to heal hearts and change minds. For in reeducating the world about Lincoln’s War it will give Northerners a better understanding of the conflict itself, while making Southerners, of all races and political persuasions, proud to be Southern.

Read the politically incorrect, international blockbuster that everyone’s talking about - the book that totally blows the lid off Yankee mythology and debunks the Left’s fake Civil War history - and learn the Truth for yourself, from Dixie's perspective. You will never completely understand the conflict until you do. Contains over 1,000 endnotes and a 700-book bibliography, and is endorsed by Dixie Outfitters, the Southern National Congress, League of the South, and numerous other pro-South organizations and individuals - and even by many Yankees. The Foreword is by noted African-American educator and Sons of Confederate Veterans member Nelson W. Winbush, M.Ed., the grandson of Private Louis Napoleon Nelson, just one of the hundreds of thousands of black Confederate soldiers who fought for the South.

Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner! has become required reading in homes and schools all over the world and is available in paperback, hardcover, and large print. Blurbs are by Thomas Moore (Chairman, Southern National Congress), Ronny Mangrum (Adjutant, Roderick, Forrest’s War Horse Camp 2072, Sons of Confederate Veterans), Timothy D. Manning (Exec. Dir., The Southern Partisan Reader), J. T. Thompson (Exec. Dir., Lotz House Museum, Franklin, TN), Scott Bowden (award-winning historian and author), and Barbara Marthal, B.A., M.Ed., (African-American educator and Civil War reenactor).

Neo-Victorian Civil War scholar Lochlainn Seabrook, a descendant of the families of Alexander H. Stephens, John S. Mosby, Edmund W. Rucker, and William Giles Harding, is the most prolific and popular pro-South writer in the world today.  Known by literary critics as the "new Shelby Foote" and by his fans as the "Voice of the Traditional South," he is a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal and the author of over 60 books that have introduced hundreds of thousands to the truth about the War for Southern Independence.  A 7th generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage and the 6th great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, Colonel Seabrook has a 40-year background in American and Southern history, and is the author of the runaway bestseller Everything You Were Taught About American Slavery is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!

Review

"Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask A Southerner! is a magnificent historical resource for learning and re-learning all the facts about the Confederacy and why the War Between the States was fought. Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook writes excellent prose: easy to read and understand. This book must be on the shelves of every self-respecting person devoted to our beloved South and to preserving our heritage." CONFEDERATE VETERAN

"With the publication of this book we Americans can finally reconcile our history with our past, through a balanced understanding of the greatness of our ancestors, particularly our Southern ancestors." BARBARA G. MARTHAL, B.A., M.Ed., African-American educator, lecturer, Civil War re-enactor, and member of the Tennessee Society Order of the Confederate Rose

"I have often told my students that the 'History' studied in American Public (Government) Schools is as bogus as what the children in the previous Soviet nations were taught by their Russian tutors. Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook takes an objective giant step in seeking to restore accuracy and integrity in our understanding of the American experience of The U.S. War to Prevent Southern Independence (called 'Civil War' by northerners). This is an important step in correcting the obnoxious myths and lies widely promoted by the U.S. court historians." TIMOTHY D. MANNING, Executive Director of 'The Southern Partisan Reader'

"If you want a refreshing pro-South, honest, factual view of the War Between the States that is not tainted with political correctness then this book is a must read. Colonel Seabrook's work is the first step to confronting the great injustice done to Southern history, emblems, and Confederate heroes by the liberal educational system, Hollywood, and popular culture. All of whom see no evil in stereotyping, ridiculing, and discriminating against descendants of Confederate soldiers." RONNY MANGRUM, President of The Green Cannon Tennessee Flag Conservation Foundation; Adjutant for Roderick, Forrest's War Horse Camp 2072, Sons of Confederate Veterans; Former Heritage Violations Chairman for Tennessee Division, SCV

"As the last portion of the Western World with an authentic culture, the South is known for its fine writers and storytellers. Tennessean Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook now joins that proud tradition. His book, 'Everything You Were Taught About the Civil War is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!' is a real page-turner that defends the South and shatters Yankee falsehoods about our history. But it's not just a pro-South book, it's a pro-Truth book." THOMAS MOORE, Chairman of the Southern National Congress and author of 'The Hunt for Confederate Gold'

"This wonderful read proves the point, 'there's always two sides to every story.' A gripping work that upon reflection will make you think about what you were or were not taught in school about American history." J.T. THOMPSON, Executive Director, Lotz House Museum, Franklin, Tennessee

"Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook's 'Everything You Were Taught About The Civil War Is Wrong, Ask a Southerner!' is exactly what every patriotic Southerner needs today, 150 years after the War to Prevent Southern Independence. The establishment will pull out all the stops to continuing its demonization of the South. Southern folks can fight back with the information in this fine book. Truth is the most powerful weapon we have. Colonel Seabrook's book lays that truth out in a very enjoyable and usable form." DR. J. MICHAEL HILL, President and founder of the League of the South
