A handsome First Edition/First Printing in unread Fine condition in Near Fine dust-jacket. Signed by author Russell Banks directly on the title page;

Banks vividly re-creates the antislavery movement of the 1840s and traces it through the brutal guerilla warefare of Bloody Kansas, culminating in a haunting, powerful re-creation of Brown's insurrectionary raid on Harpers Ferry
