| 520 | _a"Virginia's Attitude Toward Slavery and Secession" by Beverley B. Munford is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines the complex motivations and beliefs of Virginians regarding slavery and their decision to secede during the Civil War era. Munford aims to challenge prevailing narratives that suggest Virginia's primary motivations were to defend slavery or express hostility toward the Union. The opening of the book sets the stage for a thorough exploration of Virginia's historical context and political climate leading up to the Civil War. Munford presents an argument that the majority of Virginia's populace disfavored slavery and had aspirations for independence from the Union, which they viewed as vital to their own self-governance. The text delves into the state's historical commitments to principles of liberty and rebellion against perceived unconstitutional actions by the Federal Government, suggesting that Virginia's secession was more a matter of state rights and honor than a direct endorsement of slavery.
