US History The beat of history goes on! We left off with California being admitted to the Union; now we begin the “Pathway to Destruction,” the Civil War. It was a time when father fought son and brother fought brother, a time when the 16th President of the United States said, “I felt that slavery must die that a nation might live.” Once the War between the States is over, we will watch a young nation go from an agrarian society to an industrialized giant.
