First published in 1909, W.E.B. Du Bois's biography of abolitionist John Brown is a literary and historical classic. With a rare combination of scholarship and passion, Du Bois defends Brown against all detractors who saw him as a fanatic, fiend, or traitor. Brown emerges as a rich personality, fully understandable as an unusual leader with a deeply religious outlook and a devotion to the cause of freedom for the slave. This new edition is enriched with an introduction by John David Smith and with supporting documents relating to Du Bois's correspondence with his publisher. No library descriptions found. |

Reaching all the way to his childhood in Connecticut and Ohio, through his early business efforts, Du Bois draws a dramatic portrait of our country's most famous martyr.
I had no idea he was a successful, then bankrupt, businessman. His second bankruptcy finally turned him to his ultimate immortality. ( )
