Pulitzer Prize-winner Garry Wills makes a compelling argumentfor a reassessment of Henry Adams as our nations greatest historianand his History as the "nonfiction prose masterpiece of thenineteenth century in America." Adams drew on his own southernfixations, his extensive foreign travel, his political service inthe Lincoln administration, and much more to invent the study ofhistory as we know it. His nine-volume chronicle of America from1800 to 1816 established new standards for employing archivalsources, firsthand reportage, eyewitness accounts, and othertechniques that have become the essence of modern history.Ambitious in scope, nuanced in detail, Henry Adams and the Makingof America throws brilliant light on the historian and the makingof history.
Southern slaveholders proudly pronounced themselves orthodoxChristians, who accepted responsibility for the welfare of thepeople who worked for them. They proclaimed that their slavesenjoyed a better and more secure life than any laboring class inthe world. Now, did it not follow that the lives of laborers of allraces across the world would be immeasurably improved by theirenslavement? In the Old South but in no other slave society adoctrine emerged among leading clergymen, politicians, andintellectuals - 'Slavery in the Abstract', which declaredenslavement the best possible condition for all labor regardless ofrace. They joined the Socialists, whom they studied, in believingthat the free-labor system, wracked by worsening class warfare, wascollapsing. A vital question: to what extent did the people of theseveral social classes of the South accept so extreme a doctrine?That question lies at the heart of this book.
