Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

During the Progressive Era, the United States regularly suspended
its own laws to regulate racialized populations. Judges and
administrators relied on the rhetoric of sovereignty to justify
such legal practices, while in American popular culture,
sovereignty helped authors coin tropes that have become synonymous
with American exceptionalism today. In this book, Andrew Hebard
challenges the notion of sovereignty as a 'state of exception' in
American jurisprudence and literature at the turn of the twentieth
century. Hebard explores how literary trends such as romance and
realism helped conventionalize, and thereby sanction, the federal
government's use of sovereignty in a range of foreign and domestic
policy matters, including the regulation of overseas colonies,
immigration, Native American lands, and extra-legal violence in the
American South. Weaving historiography with close readings of Mark
Twain, the Western, and other hallmarks of Progressive Era
literature, Hebard's study offers a new cultural context for
understanding the legal history of race relations in the United
States.
