Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book explains how West Virginia entered—and remains—in the Union under unconstitutional circumstances. Though the U.S. government pledged to prevent the secession of eleven states from the Union, they nevertheless condoned, abetted, supported, and ultimately affirmed secession of fifty counties without permission from Virginia.
