Race and Revolution
ISBN: 9780945612216 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The most profound crisis of conscience for white Americans at the end of the eighteenth century became their most tragic failure. Race and Revolution is a trenchant study of the revolutionary generation's early efforts to right the apparent contradiction of slavery and of their ultimate compromises that not only left the institution intact but provided it with the protection of a vastly strengthened government after 1788. Reversing the conventional view that blames slavery on the South's social and economic structures, Nash stresses the role of the northern states in the failure to abolish...

Warner Mifflin: Unflinching Quaker Abolitionist
ISBN: 9780812249491 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Warner Mifflin--energetic, uncompromising, and reviled--was the key figure connecting the abolitionist movements before and after the American Revolution. A descendant of one of the pioneering families of William Penn's "Holy Experiment," Mifflin upheld the Quaker pacifist doctrine, carrying the peace testimony to Generals Howe and Washington across the blood-soaked Germantown battlefield and traveling several thousand miles by horse up and down the Atlantic seaboard to stiffen the spines of the beleaguered Quakers, harried and exiled for their neutrality during the war for independence....

These early generations of urban... This book is the first to trace the good and bad fortunes, over more than a century, of the earliest large free black community in the United State... |

Freedom by Degrees: Emancipation in Pennsylvania and Its Aftermath
ISBN: 9780195045833 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the revolutionary era, in the midst of the struggle for liberty from Great Britain, Americans up and down the Atlantic seaboard confronted the injustice of holding slaves. Lawmakers debated abolition, masters considered freeing their slaves, and slaves emancipated themselves by running away. But by 1800, of states south of New England, only Pennsylvania had extricated itself from slavery, the triumph, historians have argued, of Quaker moralism and the philosophy of natural rights. With exhaustive research of individual acts of freedom, slave escapes, legislative action, and...

The Urban Crucible boldly reinterprets colonial life and the origins of the American Revolution. Through a century-long history of three seaport towns--Boston, New York, and Philadelphia--Gary Nash discovers subtle changes in social and political awareness and describes the coming of the revolution through popular collective action and challenges to rule by custom, law and divine will.

While retaining all the main points of...
