The Abolitionist Imagination - The Alexis De Tocqueville Lectures on American Politics
Author: Andrew Delbanco
Abolitionists have been painted in extremes?vilified as reckless zealots who provoked the bloodletting of the Civil War, or praised as daring reformers who hastened the end of slavery. Delbanco sees them as the embodiment of a driving force in American history: the recurrent impulse of an adamant minority to rid the world of outrageous evil.
