This collection of essays; organized around the theme of the struggle for equality in the United States during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; also serves to honor the renowned Civil War historian James McPherson. Complete with a brief interview with the celebrated scholar; this volume reflects the best aspects of McPherson’s work; while casting new light on the struggle that has served as the animating force of his lifetime of scholarship. With a chronological span from the 1830s to the 1960s; the contributions bear witness to the continuing vigor of the argument over equality.
