To clarify - it makes MORE sense if you weigh the fact that the Union had slavery LONGER than the CSA. Sorry if I wasn't more clear - and while that makes more logical sense, my ultimate point is that it's silly to get into that particular contest, since both sides were guilty of the same sin. I didn't think you were rude, btw.
As to history - I met my husband doing living history presentations for local schools. (I played a resident of occupied New Orleans - he was a hateful Yankee a la Beast Butler's school of charm.) He is a history professor who is the protege of Tuffly Ellis, and is a published WBTS scholar. Not the same thing as having the degrees myself, but I am surrounded by a great deal of the stuff, and you'd be surprised at what constitutes dinner conversation 'round here.
