Thesis (M.A.)--East Tennessee State University, 2005.

The Myth of the Lost Cause is an inaccurate account of the Civil War that remains prominent in American society. The myth alters key aspects of the war, such as its cause, participants, and outcome. It is my hypothesis that one reason millions of Americans misunderstand the Civil War is because they learned inaccurate information as children. Most children first learn of the war in school textbooks. I therefore became curious as to the accuracy of Civil War information taught through textbooks.

520 $a The Myth of the Lost Cause is an inaccurate account of the Civil War that remains prominent in American society. The myth alters key aspects of the war, such as its cause, participants, and outcome. It is my hypothesis that one reason millions of Americans misunderstand the Civil War is because they learned inaccurate information as children. Most children first learn of the war in school textbooks. I therefore became curious as to the accuracy of Civil War information taught through textbooks.
520 $a I examined textbooks used in Tennessee schools between 1889-2002. I found that the Lost Cause is most prominent in textbooks used in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century but remains present in modern textbooks. As there is little research on this topic, it is the intent of this paper to begin the process of bridging the gap between education curriculum and the Myth of the Lost Cause.
