| Summary | "The Great Conspiracy, Volume 2" by John Alexander Logan is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. It explores the tumultuous events surrounding the secession of Southern states in the lead-up to the American Civil War, delving into the societal, political, and military tensions of the time. The book covers key figures and movements, particularly focusing on South Carolina's early fervor for secession following Lincoln's election. At the start of the narrative, the opening chapters detail the immediate reactions to Abraham Lincoln's election in November 1860, capturing the excitement and dread felt across different political factions. Celebrations erupted in the North, while Southern politicians began to prepare for a potential secession, spurred by speeches from figures like Edmund Ruffin and the actions of the South Carolina legislature. The discussions amongst governors and legislators reveal a state of urgency and fervor for rebellion, with various states rapidly following South Carolina down the path of secession, setting the stage for the national crisis that would soon escalate into civil war.
