Title: A terrific tale about a tumultuous terrorist
Product review: This was a fantastic page turner! Both the detailed historical construct and rich character development made this one of my top...20 reads of all time. The significance of the label of terrorism in our anxious post 9/11 "why do they hate us" culture makes this historical tale very contemporary. What would you do to fight an egregiously immoral genocide? John Brown took matters into his own hands, and, guided by an equally contemporary religous fanaticism, became more of a vigalante than terrorist. Great family dynamics too. A must read.
