Pursuing John Brown: On the Trail of a Radical Abolitionist

Bag om Pursuing John Brown: On the Trail of a Radical Abolitionist

In this work of hybrid creative nonfiction, Joyce Dyer retraces John Brown's steps across the country, occasionally taking roads that lead to tangential sites. Along the way, intimate questions form about John Brown's personal life-his role as son, husband, father, friend. Her pursuit forces her to confront hard questions about slavery, race, violence, and American democracy and brings her closer to understanding John Brown, herself, and us.
