Thomas L. DummRhetoric of the Human Sciences series
“The book represents a cerebral analysis of the early United States brand of democracy in relation to its system for punishment of crime. . . . [It] is thoughtful-provoking, mind-stretching, and unique in supplying a view of early American democracy from an unexpected angle.”
—Journal of American History
