Book. 9h x 6w. A real nice clean unmarked 305 page first edition trade paperback. Tells the story of public culture made by gender-differentiated interracial alliances of individuals whose public roles as activists, scientists, academicians, community works, and organizers shaped both the ideology of "national reconciliation" and the search for participatory democracy, looking at figures including W. E. B. Du Bois, Jane Addams, and Franz Boas. Examines a selection of public events chronologically and thematically, from Reconstruction to WWI, focusing on New York. Lorini teaches American history at the Universities of Florence and Pisa, Italy.
