This book discusses how life in the U.S. prior to the Civil War was characterized by movement, optimism, industriousness, diversity of customs, uniformity of ideas, and a uniqueness among the peoples of the world. Robert Lacour-Gayet examines the everyday life of Americans during the years 1830-60 to find answers to questions readers have regarding this topic. The author's colorful, readable, and well-researched history animates a still not widely explored aspect of American life. The day-to-day occupations and preoccupations of a people reveal more about a nation than its sweeping political and social movements. Everyday Life in the United States Before the Civil War: 1830-1860 shows the energies and aspirations that lay behind politics, inventions, westward treks, and reforms. This great reference book about American civil war history would be a delight for any history enthusiast.
