Strange Book of the Year Award!</strong></p><p><strong>A territory split by slavery, a state forged for union</strong></p><p><em>Avenues of Transformation</em> traces the surprising path, marked by shame, ambition, and will that led to Illinoiss admission to the Union in 1818. Historian James A. Edstrom guides the reader through this story by associating each stage of the narrativethe original statehood campaign, the passage of Illinoiss statehood-enabling act by Congress, and Illinoiss first constitutional conventionwith the primary leaders in each of those episodes. The lives of these menDaniel Pope Cook, Nathaniel Pope, and Elias Kent Kanereflect the momentous tangle of politics, slavery, and geography. This history maps the drive for statehood in the conflict between nation and state, in the perpetuation of slavery, and in the sweep of water and commerce. It underscores the ways in which the Prairie State is uniquely intertwinedeconomically, socially, and politicallywith every region of the Union: North, South, East, and Westand captures the compelling moment when Illinois statehood stood ready to more perfectly unify the nation.</p><p>This volume is the first full-length book in over a century to describe and analyze Illinoiss admission to the Union. It marks the first time that a historian has analyzed in detail the roll-call votes of the first state constitutional convention, seated evenly by pro- and antislavery delegates. Edstroms wit and prose weave a lively narrative of political ambition and human failure. Patiently crafted, <em>Avenues of Transformation</em> will be the first source for readers to turn to for gaining a better understanding of Illinois statehood.</p>...1298488Avenues of Transformation253329https://www.gandhi.com.mx/avenues-of-transformation/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1166229/cd9600dc-2244-4871-ad4e-23d77eae8805.jpg?v=638337520546670000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20229780809338771_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_<p><strong>A territory split by slavery, a state forged for union</strong></p><p><em>Avenues of Transformation</em> traces the surprising path, marked by shame, ambition, and will that led to Illinoiss admission to the Union in 1818.
