John Brown: The Making of a Revolutionary

Louis Ruchames

4.9/5 (9076 ratings)

Description:"John Brown spent the better part of his life preparing for a revolution that was designed, ultimately, to overthrow slavery in the South, yet his efforts came to naught in a matter of two days. In one very important sense, Brown was a failure. Yet, in a more profound sense the categories of success and failure are less relevant in evaluating his life than those of ethics and morality. Thus, the most valuable questions concerning Brown's life and his final act at Harper's Ferry are those which ask, first, whether he was justified in doing what he did, and whether his action was what any American with a strong sense of justice and a feeling of identity with the oppressed should have felt impelled to do in the year 1859; and second, what lessons in social and personal ethics are to be learned from a study of his life and death." -From the Introduction by Louis RuchamesWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
