ty for the help!!!
1. ?
2.Battle at Gettysburg
3. tobacco and cotton
4.abolistonist
5. Fredrick Douglass
6. Found online at a site
When Lincoln met Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, he reportedly greeted her with, “So here’s the little woman who started the big war.”
7. The underground Railroad
8. Bull Run Creek It says July 21 though not the 12th!
9. One site that I found said “The North already had a well-trained and organized standing army and navy. The Confederacy had to build theirs at the start of the war”, “The North’s tactics and generals outweighed the South’s tenfold. The North’s Anaconda Plan was to blockade, divide, and conquer the South. They literally constricted the South into submission. The North also did not set a specific time limit for which they thought the war would end. The South, however, only planned for eighteen months of fighting. This restricted their options on war tactics. The North’s superior generals were a major factor in the defeat of the South. U.S. Grant never lost a battle in the entire time frame of the Civil War, and even single handedly negotiated the surrender of General Lee’s army at Appomattox courthouse on April 9, 1865″
Note that military leadership is often cited as an advantage of the South.

Amistad $4.19 Steven Spielberg’s most simplistic, sanitized history lesson, Amistad, explores the symbolic 1840s trials of 53 West Africans following their bloody rebellion aboard a slave ship. For most of Schindler’s List (and, later, Saving Private Ryan) Spielberg restrains himself from the sweeping narrative and technical flourishes that make him one of our most entertaining and manipulative directors.
