    Philip Steele

This book examines important questions by giving a detailed account of the protagonists, campaigners, events, and attitudes that shaped an era. The book uses carefully chosen primary sources including period photography and fascinating extras like the lyrics to “John Brown’s Body,” which is a song written about the radical abolitionist John Brown following his death.
