Which description best captures Abraham Lincoln's approach to slavery before he signed the Emancipation Proclamation?
Lincoln focused on returning the seceding states to the Union and ignored the question of Abolition publicly, also aiming to keep the slave-owning boarder states in the fold. He had wanted to announce the Emancipation Proclamation earlier, but his cabinet persuaded him to wait until the North could claim a battlefield victory. With Antietam in the Fall of 1862, Lincoln felt the opportunity had finally presented itself. Even then, he made the effective date January 1, 1863, to give the rebel states a chance to return to the fold before the Proclamation took effect.
Did Lincoln instigate the Civil War?
It depends on the sympathies of the person you ask. Northern partisans say the south provoked the war by seceding from the Union. Southern partisans say everybody knew you could get out of the Union if you wanted to up until Lincoln changed the rules with the war, and that Lincoln provoked the war by refusing to evacuate US Army bases in the new southern nation, and by trying to resupply the forces in those forts and bases.
