Little known is that the Southern states did not violate the Constitution by seceding. Most likely, the writers of the Constitution did not foresee that states would ever want to secede, and so they made no provision for dealing with secession. Three years after the Confederacy was defeated, the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified, making it illegal for any more states to secede from the US. Since the Civil War there may have been motions in some state legislatures to secede (I have heard about one in Alaska) but no US state has yet violated the 14th Amendment.

He is generally regarded as having done nothing to prevent the Civil War from happening. He openly stated that he believed that the federal government was not allowed to stop states from seceding.
