Wegman, New York TimesAn authoritative history by
the preeminent scholar of the Civil War era, The
Second Founding traces the arc of the three
foundational Reconstruction amendments from their
origins in antebellum activism and adoption
amidst intense postwar politics to their virtual
nullification by narrow Supreme Court decisions
and Jim Crow state laws. Today these amendments
remain strong tools for achieving the American
ideal of equality, if only we will take them up.
