Description

Eric Foner (au). Over the course of American history, freedom has been a living truth for some Americans & a cruel mockery for others. Here, freedom’s story is an open-ended history of accomplishment & failure. Its impetus lies in the aspirations & sacrifice of millions of Americans, celebrated & anonymous, who have sought freedom’s blessings. Its cast of characters ranges from Thomas Jefferson to Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Franklin D. Roosevelt, & Ronald Reagan, from former slaves seeking to breathe real meaning into emancipation to the union organizers, freedom riders, & women’s rights advocates of our time. “A landmark American history for all readers.” B&W illustrations.
