Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The American Revolution was the greatest anti-slavery revolution in history. From the founding of the Plymouth colony up through the Washington Presidency, Americans fought for the creation of a new society based on a universal identity of human creativity. This work begins in colonial days, goes through the Washington Presidency and the leadership of Alexander Hamilton, the continuing fight of the "black abolitionists," and concludes with the Lincoln Presidency and Ulysses Grant's battle for human equality. The enemy of the United States throughout this entire period was the British Empire and the anti-human pro-slavery and pro-narcotics policies it attempted to impose. Sections of this book focus on Hamilton and the U.S, Constitution; Hamilton's economic policies; Gouverneur Morris, John Jay, DeWitt Clinton and the Erie Canal; the racism of Jefferson, Madison and Monroe; the Black Abolitionists; the great Shakespearean actor James Hewlett; the role of the British Empire in creating global slavery; the relationship between Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln; and Ulysses S. Grant's battle with the Ku Klux Klan.This book is an antidote to the current fad of portraying America as a nation based on slavery and racism.Chapters:1. The Idea of America2. A Temple of Hope . . .
