| Summary | "The Great Conspiracy, Volume 7" by John Alexander Logan is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the Civil War, particularly the events leading to and following the surrender of General Lee at Appomattox Court House, as well as the broader implications of President Lincoln's strategies and the abolition of slavery. The narrative delves deeply into military operations, political maneuvers, and the sentiments of key figures during a pivotal moment in American history. The opening of the book outlines critical military developments, detailing the movements of Confederate and Union forces as they prepare for decisive battles in late 1864. It highlights General Hood's aggressive tactics against Nashville and General Sherman's march towards Savannah, emphasizing the strategies employed by Union leaders to maintain an upper hand in the conflict. Significant attention is also given to President Lincoln's health, his meeting with General Grant, and discussions on the Thirteenth Amendment, signaling Lincoln's commitment to ending slavery. The chapter paints a vivid picture of wartime pressures, culminating in the celebration of newfound freedoms, setting the stage for the post-war reconstruction of the United States.
