Synopsis
From Thomas Jefferson to Margaret Sanger to FDR, this landmark history shows the story of American freedom to be not a mythic saga but a vital, open-ended tale of accomplishment and failure, a record of a people forever contending over the crucial ideas of their political culture. Photos., Freedom: a promised land, a battleground, America's cultural bond and fault line. The Declaration of Independence lists liberty among mankind's inalienable rights; the Constitution was framed to secure liberty's blessings. The United States bought the Civil War to bring about a new birth of freedom, World War II for the Four Freedoms, and the Cold War to defend the Free World.In Eric Foner's stirring history, freedom's story unfolds through aspiration and sacrifice, its meaning shaped not only in congressional debates and political treatises, but on plantations and picket lines, in parlors and bedrooms. Its cast of characters ranges from Thomas Jefferson to Margaret Sanger to Franklin D. Roosevelt; from former slaves seeking to breathe real meaning into emancipation to the union organizers, freedom riders, and women's rights advocates of our time.This landmark history shows the story of American freedom to be not a mythic saga but a vital, open-ended tale of accomplishment and failure, arecord of a people forever contending over the crucial ideas of their political culture.

- c***n (266)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGreat eBay transaction in every way. Awesome power seller. Book arrived in excellent condition as described. Amazing value and bargain. Shipped in a discrete manner and arrived safely with no damage whatsoever. Beautiful book. I am very impressed with this seller. Book was shipped right away and there was no delay in shipping. High quality transaction and A+ seller. Would definitely do business with again. Thanks, and keep up the great work. Take care and all the best. Highly recommended seller!
- i***u (142)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseNo trouble with seller but I bought this book and two others that comprise the series, all from separate used book sellers on eBay, all at the same time. All shipped separately, all were somehow held at the post office, supposedly according to my request (which I never gave--these are under $5 paperbacks, just leave them on the porch!!), and only notification I got was "delivery attempted." I've had one refund already--not wanted--and now I have all the books. Pain in the ass thanks to USPS.
