Reviews

A marvelous collection, put together by the foremost authority on John C. Calhoun, and an absolutely essential book for the study of the great South Carolina statesman and political philosopher! Professor Wilson's extraordinary introduction and selection of materials reflect his vast knowledge of the history of the scholarship on Calhoun and the various ways in which he is still oversimplified by those who have passionate opinion about his work but have never read him. Also a valuable introduction to the great debates which foreshadow the War between the States. As much of Calhoun as may be usefully gathered in one volume! - M.E. Bradford, University of Dallas
