However even though Alexander Stephens said that slavery was the "cornerstone of the Confederacy", yet AFTER Sothern defeat, Stephens said that the Civil War was NOT about slavery but states' rights, as he continued to be a defender of the lost cause. www.civilwarsearch.com/CivilWarHistory/107/Default.aspx http://www.timetracts.com/why_the_civil_war_took_place.htm Here is a Website you can go to, to clarify this information. There are several other Sites but this one is the best!!
