商品簡介
In The Struggle for Equality, the renowned Civil War historian
James McPherson offered an important and timely analysis of the
abolitionist movement and the legal basis it provided to the civil
rights movement of the 1960s. This work remains an incisive
demonstration of the successful role played by rights activists during
and after the Civil War, when they evolved from despised fanatics into
influential spokespersons for the radical wing of the Republican
party.
The vivid narrative stresses the intensely individual
efforts that characterized the movement, drawing on letters and
anti-slavery periodicals to let the voices of the abolitionists
express for themselves their triumphs and anxieties. Asserting that it
was not the abolitionists who failed in their efforts to instill the
principles of equality on the state level but rather the American
people who refused to follow their leadership, McPherson raises broad
questions about the obstacles that have long hindered American reform
movements in general.
This new paperback edition contains a
preface in which the author explains some of the changing perspectives
that would lead him to write several aspects of this story differently
today. The original hardcover was a winner of the Anisfield-Wolf Award
in Race Relations.
