    At the secession of the Southern states in the early months of 1861, the production of textbooks for the Confederacy’s schools was both a practical and a patriotic necessity. Until civil war came, Southern schools were dependent for textbooks on the output of Northern publishers. Hostilities made further trade impossible.
    Available textbooks, although in short supply, suffered from a serious defect; they were, in Southern eyes, blighted by Yankee biases and inaccuracies. During the course of the conflict, Southerners responded to pleas for “home edited and printed school books.” Primers, spellers, readers, arithmetics, English grammars, foreign language books, and geographies were produced. Some were original works; others were “Southern” versions of popular pre-war books by Northern authors. A few titles were imported from England.
