Nash, Julie Roy Jeffrey, ... Longman, 2005 Great Overview! This book gives a great overview of the social aspects of U.S. History since 1865. It was rather refreshing to read a history book that was not so narrowly focused on the death and carnage of war in this nation. The wars are discussed, of course, in relative detail, but more weight is placed on how they affected our nation's citizens and society as a whole. The photographs and illustrations ...             Abolitionists Remember: Antislavery Autobiographies and the Unfinished Work of Emancipation Julie Roy Jeffrey The University of North Carolina Press, 2008 In Abolitionists Remember , Julie Roy Jeffrey illuminates a second, little-noted antislavery struggle as abolitionists in the postwar period attempted to counter the nation's growing inclination to forget why the war was fought, what slavery was really like, and why the abolitionist cause was so important.

Longman, 2007 Not that bad This book is rather nice in its presentation of rather mundane information. The details of specific events can be scarce, but for a small history book.             The Great Silent Army of Abolitionism: Ordinary Women in the Antislavery Movement Julie Roy Jeffrey The University of North Carolina Press, 1998 By focusing on male leaders of the abolitionist movement, historians have often overlooked the great grassroots army of women who also fought to eliminate slavery. Here, Julie Roy Jeffrey explores the involvement of ordinary women?black and white?in the most significant reform movement prior to the Civil War. She offers a complex and compelling portrait of antebellum women's activism, tracing its changing contours over time.
