Answer:

John Brown was an American abolitionist. Brown adtvacated the use of armed institution of slavery in the united states to being the country together especially the North when it was divided buy of Northern Virginia to Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865, is often called the end of the American Civil War. The South's greatest strength lay in the fact that it was fighting on the defensive in its own territory. Familiar with the landscape, Southerners could harass Northern invaders. The military and political objectives of the Union were much more difficult to accomplish. The term that best summarizes Lincoln's position on slavery is the term "free soil." Lincoln was a firm believer in this idea, which held that slavery must not be extended to places where it did not already exist. Harriet Beecher Stowe's anti-slavery novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin, is published. The novel sold 300,000 copies within three months and was so widely read that when President Abraham Lincoln met Stowe in 1862, he reportedly said, “So this is the little lady who made this big war".

<em><u>Further explanation</u></em><em>:</em>

  1. John Brown (1800-1859) was an abolitionist who supported armed struggle against existing laws and government in order to end slavery.  In October 1859, Brown led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry, Virginia.  The intent was to arm slaves to fight for their freedom and set in motion a slave revolt that would spread across other regions in the South.  The effort was unsuccessful and Brown was hanged for treason against Virginia.
  2. President Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address on November 19, 1863.   in the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln affirmed the principle stated by the Declaration of Independence, that all men are created equal.  The massive number of casualties at the Battle of Gettysburg  gave impetus to Lincoln's words about preserving the Union and government of the people, by the people and for the people -- ideas which had been central to Lincoln's worldview before Gettysburg as well as in that speech.
  3. Lee's surrender to General Ulysses Grant of the Union occurred on April 9, 1865, near the town of Appomattox Court House, Virginia.  This was the effectively the end of the US Civil War.
  4. As pointed out by Daniel White in an article on <em>Owlcation </em>about advantages the South did have, one key was military leadership.  White writes:  "Many Southern political and military leaders were graduates of the military academy at West Point, as well as veterans of wars such as the Mexican-American War ... while the Union struggled for the first few years of the war to find strong leaders ."
  5. Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," was hugely popular with abolitionists around the world.  The book was the 2nd-best selling book of the 19th century -- coming in behind only the Bible (the perennial bestseller).  
  6. As the History Channel reports, "Lincoln did believe that slavery was morally wrong, but there was one big problem: It was sanctioned by the highest law in the land, the Constitution."  So Lincoln wrestled with the issue of slavery as a moral wrong, and yet something that had Constitutional approval.
