Book Review

William Lloyd Garrison at Two Hundred: History, Legacy, and Memory. Ed. by James Brewer Stewart. (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2008. xiv, 139 pp. Paper, $35.00, ISBN 978-0-300-13658-6.)

This book is a solid but limited contribution to the study of the abolitionist and radical reformer William Lloyd Garrison. Emerging in part from a 2005 conference on the two-hundredth anniversary of Garrison's birth, William Lloyd Garrison at Two Hundred begins with James Brewer Stewart's preface outlining the book's contents. David W. Blight follows with a sketch of Garrison's life and work. Next, Richard J. M. Blackett surveys Garrison and his allies' abolitionist agitation and reception in Great Britain from the 1830s through the 1860s. Lois M. Brown then gives an account of Garrison's impact on emancipatory feminism and, more generally, she comments on alliances and divisions among leaders of the campaigns against slavery and for women's rights.
