The Civil War Years. A day-by-day chronicle of the life of a nation. A reading of the book by Robert E. Denny (1994). The American Civil War (April 12, 1861 – May 26, 1865; also known by other names) was a civil war in the between the Union[e] ("the North") and the Confederacy ("the South"), which was formed in 1861 by states that had seceded from the Union. The central conflict leading to the war was a dispute over whether slavery should be permitted to expand into the nation's western territories, leading to more slave states, or be prohibited from doing so, which many believed would place slavery on a course of ultimate extinction.
