Reviews
"Synthesizing brilliant research in fluent prose, and writing with an indignation that's all the more damning for being understated, Cowie explores the history of Barbour County...In the uses of freedom, Cowie argues, domination is as central to the American creed as individual liberty and self-government." -- George Packer, Atlantic, "Jefferson Cowie has a knack for publishing instant classics: books that change historians' conversations. This is his most extraordinary yet. With eloquence and with brilliance, he delves deep into the annals of a specific place, Barbour County, Alabama, in order to excavate the foundations of America's darkest and most enduring story: how 'freedom' became a national alibi for cruelty, inequity, and reaction. As soon as I finished reading it, I wanted to start over and absorb it all over again." -- Rick Perlstein, author of Reaganland, " Freedom's Dominion covers centuries of American history in Eufaula, Alabama, from the violence of settler colonialism through the ascent of arch-segregationist George Wallace, the region's most famous native son. Jefferson Cowie is interested in how people in power--almost always white men--used claims of freedom to dominate and enslave others, and how they articulated domination as resistance to a tyrannical federal government. This history has urgent implications for how we understand white supremacist and anti-government politics today." -- Kathleen Belew, author of Bring the War Home, "Jefferson Cowie's Freedom's Dominion is a magisterial narrative history of white grievance politics. Cowie reveals the origins of these often hypocritical and confounding perspectives, in which those who stole, enslaved, and segregated would themselves claim to be victims of federal overreach, even as they oppressed so many others. Cowie's terrific book explains the Southern roots of that racialized ideology and reveals how one of the most influential segregationist rhetoricians of the 1960s helped repackage this powerful form of regional white identity politics for the rest of the nation." -- William Sturkey, author of Hattiesburg

Synopsis
WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE IN HISTORY *An "important, deeply affecting--and regrettably relevant" ( New York Times Book Review ) chronicle of a sinister idea of freedom: white Americans' freedom to oppress others and their fight against the government that got in their way American freedom is typically associated with the fight of the oppressed for a better world. But for centuries, whenever the federal government intervened on behalf of nonwhite people, many white Americans fought back in the name of freedom--their freedom to dominate others. In Freedom's Dominion , prizewinning historian Jefferson Cowie traces this complex saga by focusing on a quintessentially American place: Barbour County, Alabama, the ancestral home of political firebrand George Wallace. In a land shaped by settler colonialism and chattel slavery, freedom became a weapon. With freedom as their cry, white Americans seized Native lands, championed secession, overthrew Reconstruction, questioned the New Deal, and fought against the civil rights movement. Through a riveting account of two centuries of local clashes between white people and federal authorities, Freedom's Dominion offers a radically new history of federal power, democracy, and American freedom. This history summons us today to embrace a vigorous model of American citizenship, backed by a federal government that is not afraid to fight the many incarnations of the freedom to dominate., WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE IN HISTORY!

I had no need to communicate with the seller regarding the shipping. I had bought the books as a boxed set and the small box the books fit into was damaged. This didn’t matter to me, so I’m still giving the seller their 5 stars. The books themselves were in perfect condition.
