Pre-eighteenth century America was a uniquely pragmatic, utopian
society a new world in which the expectations of a new beginning
brought by explorers, traders, and settlers often conflicted
violently the Native Americans they encountered. In Era of
Persuasion: American Thought and Culture 1521 1680, E. Brooks
Holifield identifies the act of persuasion as the common ground on
which these disparate groups stood. As he clearly documents and
persuasively interprets an America that some readers may not
recognize, Holifield includes compelling insights into the social
expressions of Native Americans and Africans as well as Europeans.
His view extends from the pueblos of New Mexico and the missions of
France to the plantations of Virginia and the towns of New England.
Era of Persuasion portrays an early American society populated by
passionate visionaries with urgently persuasive purposes who lived
by applied philosophy and inspired action, and will be appreciated
by the curious reader and avid historian alike."
