520 1 $a"British stage star turned Georgian plantation mistress, Fanny Kemble is perhaps best known as America's most unlikely abolitionist, whose passionate writings against human bondage made her a heroine of the Union cause. Irrepressible in word and deed, Kemble captured the imaginations of many famous Americans of the antebellum era.".
520 8 $a"In 1835, Kemble published her Journal of Residence in America. The book not only aired Kemble's controversial views on slavery but launched a satirical send-up of American society, which her husband maintained would bring shame on their friends and family. The book became an instant bestseller and left New York City "in an uproar.'".
520 8 $a"Bringing to bear the tools of both history and biography, Catherine Clinton reveals how one woman's life reflected in microcosm the public battles - over slavery, the role of women, sectionalism - that fueled our nation's greatest conflict and have permanently marked our history."--BOOK JACKET.
