Buenger’s article, “Secession Revisited: The Texas Experience.” Buenger argues there exists an extensive amount of studies on secession, but the focus of these studies centers on individual states actions, “no one has attempted to synthesize these works and write a history of secession for the entire South.” He asserts that Texas could serve as a model if someone conducted a synthesize study of secession
