Detailed and interesting discussion on the Christian reforms in American between the Revolution and the Civil War and how they changed the country for the better. I would recommend this for history students, politicians and anyone interested in making the world a better place.

    Introduction to antebellum reform
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2000*

Mintz's work is the most recent attempt to summarize antebellum reform.  Shorter than the other two attempts (Alice Felt Tyler's outdated classic FREEDOM'S FERMENT and Ronald Walter's AMERICAN REFORMERS), he emphasizes  the ironies of reform: the religious roots yet secular forms, the  conservative self-image yet radical tendencies, the anti-institutional bias  yet creation of enduring institutions.  He seeks to find middle ground  between historians who have highlighted the reformers' fear and desire for  social control and those historians who stressed the reformers' hope and  benevolent intentions.  At its heart, he sees (most of) the antebellum  reformers as true heirs of the  American liberal tradition, by which he  means the attempt to ameliorate harsher aspects of capitalism through  collective and government action.  (For a scholar who disagrees, at least  for some of the reformers, see Leo Hirrel's CHILDREN OF WRATH.)  Mintz  succeeds in creating a readable and informative synthesis of the  historiography in which the reformers are viewed sympathetically as worthy  of our respect, however flawed they might have been.  Yet, for all his  consensus-building, some readers may find this book unsatisfactory in that  too many questions are only treated superficially: What really motivated  the reformers?  How successful were they?  What can they teach us today?  That's okay.  These questions are really topics for different kinds of  books.  An important purpose of a broad survey text like this is to prompt  some readers to explore the topic in more depth, and I believe that Mintz  has succeeded in this purpose.  I recommend this work as a solid  introduction to antebellum reform.
