I have been thinking about "The Lost Cause" and how the North and South emerged from that deadly struggle so.....smoothly. (smoothly for white people. Not for freed slaves or Indians) Could it be that the lost cause myth actual helped the North and South reconcile with each other? Could this belief, even though it was not correct, have made a difference in this country licking it's wounds? Is my this line of thinking also a myth and the North and South were too busy conquering the West and acquiring free land to hold grudges?
