Now, in this monumental work that interweaves the sweep of events and social forces with the infinite minutiae of a human life and the lives surrounding it, John Brown the man is seen in the context of the long cold war between the North and South that shaped him and found in him a symbol and a prime actor. Here is John Brown the Ohio farmer, the sheep herder, the paterfamilias, the Sunday School teacher, and~astonishingly~the longtime vacillator who at last, caught up in the tide of passions that engulfed the whole country, turned zealot and martyr. In a brilliant overture the themes are stated and the legend outlined to its tragic climax at Harper's Ferry. Then, from the 1830's and America's first crucial confrontation with the moral issues of slavery, John Brown's evolution is brought to his fifty~fifth year, when he left for a Kansas that had already been conquered for slavery. Around him a whole galaxy of great and curious Americans come alive, from the fiery Boston brahmin Wendell Phillips, who called himself a "nonresistant," to the South's Jefferson Davis, from the knightly yet egotistic abolitionist Dr. Howe to Alabama's golden~tongued orator, William Lowndes Yancey, from the great anti~slavery organizer, Theodore Dwight Weld, to that beau ideal of the Southland, Sergeant Prentiss. Here, richly portrayed~and always in dramatic terms~are all the passionate partisans of the time: Theodore Parker, the greatest preacher of his day; Frederick Douglass, Governor Henry Wise of Virginia, William Lloyd Garrison, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Thoreau, Edmund Ruffin, John Quincy Adams, Nat Turner, Gerrit Smith, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, the martyred newspaperman Elijah Lovejoy, Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, and the white women who were their sisters in struggle~Prudence Crandall, Lydia Maria Child, and the rest. And here are hundreds of other brave and fearful participants, North and South, in the turbulent stream of events that led to Fort Sumter. Drama after drama unfolds: duels, debates, filibusters, riots and lynchings, black men and women sold at auction or fleeing via the Underground Railroad, the exploits of rogues and heroes. And always in the foreground, John Brown himself. Marvelously concrete, crowded with intimate details drawn from letters, diaries, journals, newspaper accounts, this is the first book in Richard O. Boyer's two~book biography/history of a man and a time whose reverberations are still marching on. Front of jacket incorporates engravings from The Boston Athenaeum and William Still's The Underground Railroad, Philadelphia, 1872.…
