A riveting journey through a pivotal era, The Battle Of Principles reveals how courage, rhetoric, and resolve helped shape a nation's conscience. This is more than a history book; it is a living record of the anti-slavery conflict that tested ideas, loyalties, and the power of words. Newell Dwight Hillis guides readers through the rise of American slavery, the fierce debates of Webster, Calhoun, Garrison and Phillips, and the eloquent appeals that moved educated men and common readers alike. From Horace Greeley's mass audience to Harriet Beecher Stowe's moral magnetism, from the precipitating moment with John Brown to Lincoln's martyred presidency, the narrative threads a coherent, human story of belief, risk, and sacrifice. The book offers a clear, inspiring synthesis of themes-principle against practice, civic duty against sectional fear, and the enduring pull of justice in a young republic. Histories of the abolitionist movement, the nineteenth century in America, and the broader American Civil War era gain fresh urgency here. This complete edition honours comparable works by Garrison and horace greeley while speaking with modern clarity. It is suitable for history students, scholars, and curious readers alike, and also serves as a guide for educators and researchers. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint-a collector's item and a cultural treasure, an illustrated edition that invites thoughtful study and lasting admiration.
