Herb Karl carefully blends historical detail with dramatic personal descriptions to reveal critical episodes in Brown's life, illuminating his character and the motives that led up to the Harpers Ferry invasion, giving readers a complete picture of the man who has too often been dismissed as hopelessly fanatical. Brown's friendship with Frederick Douglass and their ongoing debate on how to end slavery, his devoted family, who stand by him despite the danger, and his struggles to secure funding and political favor for his cause against deeply entrenched politicians all make for a surprisingly contemporary story of family, passion, race, and politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Herb Karl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1613736339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781613736333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academy Chicago Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2016","brand":"Herb Karl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984621633791,"sku":"9781613736333","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1e3f8c02-0355-4e3e-a94f-1f5ea2651e59.jpg?v=1683273297","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-insurrectionist-herb-karl-9781613736333","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
