  3. After the War • Life in south was hard to get back up and running. • The reason is because livestock and crops were destroyed by the war. • The North was trying to help immigrates on their feet. Picture found on http://www.sitemason.com/files/l4QTbq/recruitmenthandbilll.jpg

  4. After the War Continues • The south had a harder time to get things back to normal because there was so much damage from the fighting. • They also had to learn how to work in the fields, and some had to reduce their land size because they did not have slaves to do all the work for them anymore. • The North had to learn what to do with the newly freed slaves that came to the North to start over.
