you can look at the Mississippi secession letter and it does speak of slavery to ensure economic stability...but who sold the slaves to the south in the first place...the north did...who saw the souths economic growth as a threat....the north did...congress trying to control which states were granted statehood via which states were going to be slave states...all contributed to the war...states rights, unfounded taxation, slavery...these three things are what the leading expert historical authorities will tell you caused the war...
