John Brown, Abolitionist: The Man Who Killed Slavery, Sparked the Civil War, and Seeded Civil Rights
Description
A cultural biography of John Brown, the controversial abolitionist who used
violent tactics against slavery and single-handedly changed the course of
American history. Reynolds brings to life the Puritan warrior who gripped
slavery by the throat and triggered the Civil War. Reynolds demonstrates that
Brown’s most violent acts—including his killing of proslavery settlers in
Kansas and his historic raid on Harpers Ferry, Virginia–were inspired by the
slave revolts, guerilla warfare, and revolutionary Christianity of the day. He
shows how Brown seized public attention, polarizing the nation and fueling the
tensions that led to the Civil War. Reynolds recounts how Brown permeated
American culture during the Civil War and beyond, and how he planted the seeds
of the civil rights movement by making a pioneering demand for complete social
and political equality for America’s ethnic minorities. Read more
