Murray Rothbard challenges conventional narratives surrounding America’s two most mythologized wars: the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. Rothbard defends the American Revolution as a rare example of a just war for liberty and decentralization, and casts a critical eye on the War Between the States, arguing it marked the rise of empire, centralization, and mass bloodshed.
Recorded at the "The Costs of War" conference in May 1994.
