If secession was preemptive and hotheaded given the facts on the ground, why then did the South undertake this course?

Since South Carolina was the catalyst, we will start there. The Secession Convention of that state produced a document entitled, "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union".

The Declaration asserted that the Northern states had combined in league to subvert the original scope of the Constitution -- namely that:

the Northern states were failing to return fugitive slaves, in violation of their obligations under Article Four of the Constitution.

the Northern states tolerated abolitionists and insurrectionists (such as John Brown) who incited slaves in the South to rebel.

misguided political and religious beliefs in the North made future sectional unity impossible.

some states were elevating persons "incapable of becoming citizens" (i.e. free blacks) and using their votes to support anti-slavery policies.

the Republican Party was planning to wage a war against slavery upon taking office in March 1861.
