what makes In Hope of Liberty so stimulating is the juxtaposition of the broad historical sweep with individual experience. (S-M Grant, American Studies, 33:2, 1999.)
it is the Horton's ability to pull together such a wide and varied range of individual voices that makes this work so approachable. (S-M Grant, American Studies, 33:2, 1999.)
Given the amount of scholarship to-date on the themes of black culture, community and protest, the Hortons have set their sights high in attempting a single-volume study covering all three topics. They have nevertheless succeeded in producing a work of synthesis which is both broad in scope and, most importantly, accessible to a wide readership. (S-M Grant, American Studies, 33:2, 1999.)
Covering the colonial period to the Civil War, spanning all of the northern United States, In Hope of Liberty documents the antebellum northern black experience. In examining churches, schools, music, living arrangements, occupations, even the underground railroad, the Hortons point out the central role of the black community in successfully managing the tensions born of assimilation and cultural difference. In the process, they detail the extensive national contributions of northern blacks.
