Louis Masur has set himself up in a propitious perch astride the end of republican America and the ascendance of that messier thing called democracy. It is as if Alexis de Tocqueville returned and, with all the advantages of historical hindsight, rewrote his classic account of modern America's birth., "It was the year of Nat Turner's slave rebellion, of the launching of Garrison's Liberator ,of Tocqueville's visit to the United States, of Cyrus McCormick's invention of the mechanical reaper, and of many other pivotal events. Annus mirabilis , 1831 became the hinge of fate for the future of America, both good and ill. Louis Masur has captured the flavor of this crucial year in this captivating book."--James M.

Synopsis
1776, 1861, 1929. Any high-school student should know what these years meant to American history. But wars and economic disasters are not our only pivotal events, and other years have, in a quieter way, swayed the course of our nation. 1831 was one of them, and in this striking new work, Louis Masur shows us exactly how. The year began with a solar eclipse, for many an omen of mighty changes -- and for once, such predictions held true. Nat Turner's rebellion soon followed, then ever-more violent congressional arguments over slavery and tarrifs. Religious revivalism swept the North, and important observers (including Tocqueville) traveled the land, forming the opinions that would shape the world's view of America for generations to come. New technologies, meanwhile, were dramatically changing Americans' relationship with the land, and Andrew Jackson's harsh policies toward the Cherokee erased most Indians' last hopes of autonomy. As Masur's analysis makes clear, by 1831 it was becoming all too certain that political rancor, the struggle over slavery, the pursuit of individualism, and technological development might eclipse the glorious potential of the early republic--and lead the nation to secession and civil war. This is an innovative and challenging interpretation of a key moment in antibellum America.

This is not in "good" condition. It has tears, stick tape repairs across it. The cover jacket is torn and curled over itself everywhere. It also has pen writing the book. I want expecting an amazing outcome.... but this is well beneath my expectations.

    Will satisfy history nerds and laymen alike!

    Louis Masur's "1831: Year of Eclipse" is an excellent example of a scholarly, yet narrative, history. In it, Masur suggests that the year 1831 is a pivotal one in American history: a year that saw the Nat Turner slave Rebellion, Alexis de Tocqueville's tour of the United States, the emergence of the Anti-Mason party, a renewed religious revival movement, and the titular solar eclipse. Masur uses the eclipse as a metaphor for Antebellum America--strained under the opposing forces of light and dark, slavery and freedom, nature and machines, religion and politics. As an historian, I am trained to look for a scholarly thesis statement early in the text. Masur omits a formal thesis statement, choosing instead to let the narrative speak for itself. In my opinion, he does the narrative a great ...
