Focusing on post-Civil War authors, the book explores their visions of American identity through the lens of universal democratic ideals, while confronting the harsh realities of racial, sexual, and gender inequalities. Hogan's analysis reveals how these authors' imaginations are closely tied to the narrative structures that shape human understanding, highlighting the complexities of identity in a divided nation.
