I just finished American Inheritance: Liberty and Slavery in the Birth of a Nation, 1765-1795 by Edward Larson which was very interesting. You can see the origins of the Civil War play out at the nations founding. Has this been discussed here?

I've seen it. I highly recommend his book THE SUMMER OF THE GODS if you haven't already read it.

I don't know if I have written specifically about the topic, but plenty of historians have done so in recent years. Thanks for the comment.
