“Combining German- and English-language sources as few Americanists can do, Honeck’s smart and ambitious book connects the American abolitionist movement to immigration, the midcentury revolutions of central Europe, and the ways activists on both sides of the Atlantic found to end human bondage in the United States.�-Paul Finkelman, President William McKinley Distinguished Professor of Law, Albany Law School, Honeck's book is a successful examination of the tensions and interconnections between two different groups of abolitionist radicals. . . . This study provides a good example of how the German background of the Forty-Eighters shaped the way they interacted with American social and political movements., A great contribution to the literature, for it makes a new, detailed examination of German-speaking immigrants' involvement in abolitionism from the period of the European revolutions of 1848-49 until the end of US Civil War. . . . Honeck expands understanding of not just the antebellum abolitionist movement, but also conceptions of race and nationality in the mid-nineteenth century., "Lucidly written, with a focus on the human story, this fascinating volume tells the story of the fight to abolish slavery in the U.S. with a new perspective: the active role played by radical democrats from Germany, who had immigrated to America after the war of 1848, and went on to fight alongside abolitionists to spread their ideals that all should be free."--Book News, [A] great contribution to the literature, for it makes a new, detailed examination of German-speaking immigrants' involvement in abolitionism from the period of the European revolutions of 1848-49 until the end of US Civil War. . . .Honeck expands understanding of not just the antebellum abolitionist movement, but also conceptions of race and nationality in the mid- 19th century., In his engaging new book, Mischa Honeck explores the relationships that German refuges of the failed revolutions of 1848 . . . formed with native-born abolitionists in the United States., "Lucidly written, with a focus on the human story, this fascinating volume tells the story of the fight to abolish slavery in the U.S. with a new perspective: the active role played by radical democrats from Germany, who had immigrated to America after the war of 1848, and went on to fight alongside abolitionists to spread their ideals that all should be free."-Book News, "Honeck's book is a successful examination of the tensions and interconnections between two different groups of abolitionist radicals. . . .

Synopsis
Widely remembered as a time of heated debate over the westward expansion of slavery, the 1850s in the United States was also a period of mass immigration. As the sectional conflict escalated, discontented Europeans came in record numbers, further dividing the young republic over issues of race, nationality, and citizenship. The arrival of German-speaking "Forty-Eighters," refugees of the failed European revolutions of 1848-49, fueled apprehensions about the nation's future. Reaching America did not end the foreign revolutionaries' pursuit of freedom; it merely transplanted it. In We Are the Revolutionists , Mischa Honeck offers a fresh appraisal of these exiled democrats by probing their relationship to another group of beleaguered agitators: America's abolitionists. Honeck details how individuals from both camps joined forces in the long, dangerous battle to overthrow slavery. In Texas and in cities like Milwaukee, Cincinnati, and Boston this cooperation helped them find new sources of belonging in an Atlantic world unsettled by massive migration and revolutionary unrest. Employing previously untapped sources to write the experience of radical German émigrés into the abolitionist struggle, Honeck elucidates how these interethnic encounters affected conversations over slavery and emancipation in the United States and abroad. Forty-Eighters and abolitionists, Honeck argues, made creative use not only of their partnerships but also of their disagreements to redefine notions of freedom, equality, and humanity in a transatlantic age of racial construction and nation making., Widely remembered as a time of heated debate over the westward expansion of slavery, the 1850s in the United States was also a period of mass immigration.
