Secession Part III

Editor, Times-Union:
The following is the third part of my letter on the subject of secession. The first two parts were printed in previous editions of the Times-Union. Those two letters listed a definition of secession and 24 sources of information that readers of the Times-Union can find at the Warsaw Public Library or Amazon.com This part of my letter will list further sources of information plus an addition to my definition of secession printed in my previous letter to the editor.
Reading list for further information:
1. “Secession: How Vermont and All Other States can Save Themselves from the Empire”
2. “Identity, Self-Determination and Secession”
3. “Political History of Secession to the Beginning of the American Civil War”
4. “Secession: The Morality of Political Divorce from Fort Sumter to Lithuania and Quebec”
5. “Apostles of Disunion: Southern Secession Commissioners and the Causes of the Civil War”
6. “The City at Stake: Secession, Reform, and the Battle for Los Angeles”
7. “The Secession of Quebec and the Future of Canada: Expanded and Revised”
8. “Documentary Source Book of American History, 1606-1913”
9. “Africa in History: Revised and Expanded Edition”
10. “A Biography of the Continent: Africa”
11. “Days of Defiance: Sumter, Secession, and the Coming of the Civil War”
12. “The Lost Cause: The Standard Southern History of the War of the Confederates”
Secession does not necessarily always involve the political separation of a territory from a nation or empire and the formation of an independent country. A portion of a state or province within a nation may wish to become a separate state or province from its current home state or province but still remain within that nation and not outside of its political control. Just a portion of a country may wish to split from its current country and form a new country while remaining within the political control of its home state or province and nation that it is in. The same can be applied to portions of cities and townships.
The fourth part of my letter on the subject of secession will follow at a later date in the letters to the editor column.
