Summary

In "Under Dispute," Agnes Repplier presents a compelling exploration of the nuances of disagreement through a rich tapestry of essays that blend intellectual rigor with a lively prose style. Rooted in the literary context of late 19th-century America, Repplier's work stands as a testament to the era's preoccupation with individualism and debate. Her essays reflect a keen observational eye, dissecting the morality and ethics surrounding contention in both personal and public spheres, thus illuminating the often-overlooked dynamics of dissent. Repplier's deft use of wit and irony challenges readers to reconsider the value of disagreement in shaping human experience and societal progress. Agnes Repplier (1855-1950), a notable American essayist, was renowned for her incisive commentary and strong perspective on women's roles in society. Her extensive literary career was marked by a keen interest in the moral dilemmas of her time, which undoubtedly influenced her writings. Drawing from her own experiences and observations, Repplier articulated the importance of engaging in respectful discourse, a conviction that resonates throughout "Under Dispute." Her nuanced approach underscores her belief in the transformative potential of conflict. "Under Dispute" is essential reading for anyone interested in the art of argumentation and the cultivation of intellectual dialogue. Repplier's eloquent prose and insightful reflections offer a refreshing reexamination of contention, encouraging readers to embrace disagreement as a constructive force. This book will resonate with scholars, students, and general readers alike, making it a significant addition to any literary collection.

    An important book of epic scope on America's first racially integrated, religiously inspired movement for change. 
The true story of the Underground Railroad is much more morally complex and politically divisive than even the myths suggest. Against a backdrop of the country's westward expansion arose a clash of values that evolved into a fierce fight for nothing less than the country's soul. Beginning six decades before the Civil War, freedom-seeking blacks and courageous whites worked together to save tens of thousands of lives, often at the risk of great physical danger to themselves. Not since the American Revolution had the country engaged in an act of such vast and profound civil disobedience that not only challenged prevailing mores but also subverted federal law. 
Meticulously researched and uncommonly engaging, Bound for Canaan shows why it was the Underground Railroad and not the civil rights movement that gave birth to this country's first racially integrated, religiously inspired movement for social change.
