Abbott's book deals with the Freedmen's Bureau, the agency that
faced the main challenge of defining the meaning of freedom for
four million slaves after the Civil War. He records the
difficulties that resulted from the urgency of the needs the bureau
sought to remedy and the issue of whether the bureau may have used
its position to further the cause of Radical Republicanism.
