Puritan Political Ideas
This book is a collection of essays that seeks to look at the early years of the American republic, but without the recent emphasis in popular history on the founding fathers. It's not "great men" and momentous times, but a look at everyday lives and people who were also a part of the making of the nation. An occasional big name makes an appearance - such as Thomas Jefferson and his big cheese (literally) - but it's mostly people and movements that most of us haven't heard of, such as:
- Young Federalists in the War of 1812
- The Anti-Rent wars of upstate New York
- Early electioneering rituals
- An enlightening look at the 2nd Amendment as it was interpreted around 1800
- and a lot more. It is sometimes dense reading, sometimes fun, and very enlightening.
