Summary: Essential look at the antebellum South
Comment: In this fascinating book, Genovese examines the attemptsmade by antebellum Southern intellectuals like John C.Calhoun, James Henley Thornwell, George Fitzhugh, and others to reconcile the American love of freedom with the slavery they saw all around them. Genovese points out, Yankee propaganda to the contrary, that these men were, in their various fields, as formidable a group of intellects as America has ever produced. But their task was, of course, impossible. As usual, this book is essential for understanding the antebellum South.
