"So you’re the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war". The quote was spoken by President Abraham Lincoln to Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Explanation:

When Stowe met Abraham Lincoln in 1862, during the Civil War, the greeting of the President was: "So you're the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war!", in relation to Uncle Tom's Cabin, the book that Harriet Beecher Stowe had published in 1852.

In a period in which slavery had not been abolished, this book represented an easy target of strong and profoundly negative criticism from the opposition sectors, that is, those people who rose in favor of the slave system and against the abolitionist cause.

Historically, the book was written on dates when the United States (along with Brazil) were one of the few countries that continued to admit legal slavery and this book contributed to deepen the debate and expand the consciousness of Americans about the slave system.

herodotus taught this. herodotus was an ancient greek historian who was born in halicarnassus in the persian empire. he is known for having written the book the histories, a detailed record of his "inquiry" on the origins of the greco-persian wars.

when world war i broke out across europe in 1914, president woodrow wilson proclaimed the united states would remain neutral, and many americans supported this policy of nonintervention. however, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the british ocean liner lusitania by a german u-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 americans. along with news of the zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between germany and mexico, wilson asked congress for a declaration of war against germany. the u.s. officially entered the conflict on april 6, 1917.
