"This book is about the relationship between the Civil War generation and the founding generation," Timothy S. Huebner states at the outset of this ambitious and elegant overview of the Civil War era. The book integrates political, military, and social developments into an epic narrative interwoven with the thread of constitutionalism—to show how all Americans engaged the nation's heritage of liberty and constitutional government. Whether political leaders or plain folk, northerners or southerners, Republicans or Democrats, black or white, most free Americans in the mid-nineteenth century believed in the foundational values articulated in the Declaration of Independence of 1776 and the Constitution of 1787—and this belief consistently animated the nation's political debates. Liberty and Union shows, however, that different interpretations of these founding documents ultimately drove a deep wedge between North and South, leading to the conflict that tested all constitutional faiths. Huebner argues that the resolution of the Civil War was profoundly revolutionary and also inextricably tied to the issues of both slavery and sovereignty, the two great unanswered questions of the Founding era. Drawing on a vast body of scholarship as well as such sources as congressional statutes, political speeches, military records, state supreme court decisions, the proceedings of black conventions, and contemporary newspapers and pamphlets, Liberty and Union takes the long view of the Civil War era. It merges Civil War history, US constitutional history, and African American history and stretches from the antebellum era through the period of reconstruction, devoting equal attention to the Union and Confederate sides of the conflict. And its in-depth exploration of African American participation in a broader culture of constitutionalism redefines our understanding of black activism in the nineteenth century. Altogether, this is a masterly, far-reaching work that reveals as never before the importance and meaning of the Constitution, and the law, for nineteenth-century Americans.

*Includes pictures *Includes excerpts of Webster's speeches *Includes a bibliography for further reading "When my eyes shall be turned to behold for the last time the sun in heaven, may I not see him shining on the broken and dishonored fragments of a once glorious Union; on States dissevered, discordant, belligerent; on a land rent with civil feuds, or drenched, it may be, in fraternal blood! Let their last feeble and lingering glance rather behold the gorgeous ensign of the republic... not a stripe erased or polluted, nor a single star obscured, bearing for its motto, no such miserable interrogatory as 'What is all this worth?' nor those other words of delusion and folly, 'Liberty first and Union afterwards'; but everywhere, spread all over in characters of living light, blazing on all its ample folds, as they float over the sea and over the land, and in every wind under the whole heavens, that other sentiment, dear to every true American heart, - Liberty and Union, now and for ever, one and inseparable!" - Daniel Webster In a modern era that Americans often view wearily as being too partisan, elections often bring the same questions. Many look back nostalgically to earlier centuries in which it's assumed America had great statesmen, which is understandable in light of increasingly hostile political rhetoric that seems to be more aimed at dividing the country than uniting it. Of course, more serious historians analyze whether these elusive statesmen actually ever existed, and whether there was truly a time when politicians didn't engage in political rancor. It is impossible for any person, politician or not, to be completely pure of heart, but Daniel Webster certainly showed again and again throughout his career that he considered certain principles worth sacrificing nearly everything for. Throughout his life, Webster felt he had to live up to the highest ideals of patriotic loyalty to America's earliest founders. He also stated again and again that the United States Constitution, and the nation that it governed, had to stand, no matter what else might fall for its sake. During his lifetime, he demonstrated that he would make any sacrifice to preserve both, and in so doing, he was instrumental in helping to delay the American Civil War. Today Webster may be best known for being one of the greatest orators in American history, a reputation he earned as one of the young country's greatest lawyers, and even as a pop culture fixture thanks to works like "The Devil and Daniel Webster." But Webster also served in nearly every capacity in government but as president, from being Secretary of State to being a Congressman and Senator for decades. He was recognized as one of the country's 5 greatest Senators, thanks to his work on landmark legislation like the Compromise of 1850, which staved off the Civil War for possibly a decade (and ensured Webster wouldn't live long enough to see it actually take place). Like most men who do great things, Webster was both loved and hated during his lifetime, sometimes by the same people. However, the one thing no one could ever deny was his fiery way with words. In fact, to this day, his quotes turn up in everything from college term papers to political speeches. A countless number of others lived during his day, and hundreds served with him in various capacities in government, only to be forgotten, but Webster, by his words and deeds, secured himself a place in the great pantheon of political thought that may very well last until the end of time. Daniel Webster: The Life and Legacy of One of America's Most Famous Senators and Orators examines one of 19th century America's most influential figures. Along with pictures and a bibliography, you will learn about Daniel Webster like never before.

Barack Obama's politics are deeply informed by his profound knowledge and understanding of his country's history. His articles, books, and speeches are replete with references to America's past and how that relates to the present he sees and the future he envisions. Exploring Obama's own words, Steven Sarson examines his interpretation of American history from colonial times to the present, showing how Obama sees American history as beginning with the “common creed” of equality and liberty proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence and the “more perfect union” created by the Constitution. He analyses Obama's understanding of the colonies, revolution, and early nation, slavery and the civil war, segregation and civil rights, economy and society, Native Americans and foreign policy. An epilogue explores how Obama personifies the American dream through the stories of individuals, including his own. A unique and fascinating take on the past and how we interpret it, this book will appeal to all students and scholars of American history, as well as anyone interested in Obama's presidency.

These lectures had their origin in that portion of my course at the Sorbonne which was least concerned with matters touched on in my 'Literary history of America.' In their present form they were given before the Lowell Institute, in Boston, during the autumn of 1905.
