Reviews
Here is a great narrative history of a key moment in the antislavery struggle. Told with narrative flair and a sense of drama, youEL will LOVE Tomek's book on the burning of Pennsylvania Hall. - Richard Newman, Rochester Institute of TechnologyThis is an engaging history of the events surrounding the burning of Philadelphia's Pennsylvania Hall in 1838, only days after the building opened. Tomek uses this act of mob violence (a "Legal Lynching") as a window into the city's debates over abolitionism and race in the 1830s and, more broadly, as a window into how the city's abolitionists were divided in how to pursue their goals. - J. Matthew Gallman, University of FloridaAn excellent book on abolitionism in antebellum Philadelphia. It is ideal for undergraduatesEL [and] tells a powerful story in a brief narrativeEL - Mark Elliott, University of North Carolina at Greensboro

Synopsis
Offering a gripping narrative of one of the most notorious anti-abolition and anti-black riots to take place in the antebellum U.S., Pennsylvania Hall: A 'Legal Lynching' in the Shadow of the Liberty Bell provides a thorough explanation of the complexities of American antislavery and describes a society that was struggling to recreate itself in the wake of emancipation. Part of the Critical Historical Encounters series, Pennsylvania Hall focuses on the differences between gradual and immediate emancipation and the complexities of "immediatism." After describing the tensions between competing abolition camps, author Beverly Tomek examines the way in which the Garrisonian branch of the movement used the press effectively to shape both the contemporary and historical narrative. She demonstrates how Pennsylvania - the birthplace of American abolition - remained relevant to the cause. Illustrating the complexity of the Abolition movement in the North and how internal struggles hampered the movements' goals, Pennsylvania Hall's strong narrative style provides an in-depth analysis while remaining approachable for students., Offering a gripping narrative of one of the most notorious anti-abolition and anti-black riots to take place in the antebellum U.S., Pennsylvania Hall: A 'Legal Lynching' in the Shadow of the Liberty Bell provides a thorough explanation of the complexities of American antislavery and describes a society that was struggling to recreate itself in the wake of emancipation.

- _***s (6)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoWhen I'd originally placed this order, I had accidentally put in the wrong shipping address. However, the seller was more than helpful, and the CD arrived!! The packaging was wide open when it arrived, but luckily nothing was damaged. Additionally, there was nothing protective on the CD, so that open package made me feel kind of nervous. Otherwise, absolutely great! The customer service was awesome, and the product was as described.

I ordered another and had it sent elsewhere. My main issue was that it felt as if I was getting automated responses at first!! Please have humans review human inquiries!! It was painstaking explaining the situation to an A.I. who only repeats unhelpful replies. Thanks again!! Otherwise. Great price! Great seller!
- e***r (330)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoAlthough I received the incorrect book with my order (that had a title close to what I had ordered), AlibrisBooks apologized, said they could not re-send the book, and refunded my money and told me to keep the book that I had received, and either donate it or give it away, so I gave it to someone. That was very kind on their part to do that, and I would highly recommend them. Mistakes happen I get that.
