892: Foot Stomp
Civil War Revisionism and British-French Conspiracy Theory
The hosts discuss modern interpretations of the American Civil War, with Dvorak presenting a conspiracy theory involving British and French interests. He suggests the war was instigated to split the U.S. so European powers could reclaim territory and control the wealth from the California Gold Rush. This theory involves a British spy network in Canada and the French installation of Maximilian in Mexico as part of a larger plan to seize the American South.
