About This Item
New York: Harper; HarperCollinsPublishers, 2013. 722 pages, colour maps; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Age toning. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. "Ecstatic Nation illuminates one of the most dramatic and momentous chapters in America's past, when the country dreamed big, craved new lands and new freedom, and was bitterly divided over its great moral wrong: slavery. With a canvas of extraordinary characters, such as P.T. Barnum, Walt Whitman, Frederick Douglass, and L.C.Q. Lamar, Ecstatic Nation balances cultural and political history: it provides an account of the sectional conflict that preceded the Civil War, and it chronicles the complex aftermath of that war and Reconstruction, including the promise that women would share in a new definition of American citizenship. It takes us from photographic surveys of the Sierra Nevadas to the discovery of gold in the South Dakota hills, and it signals the painful, thrilling birth of modern America." - Publisher.. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 8vo.
