AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Wise (1806-1876) was extremely active on the Virginia and national political scene from the early 1830s to the mid-1860s, drawing popular support because of his projection of hopefulness and energy. Regarded as eccentric, Wise is given, in this study, an interpretation that finds consistency in his life-long controversial and impulsive behavior. Simpson stresses Wise's ambivalent attitude toward slaves and slave-holding, authority and authority figures, and Virginia and the United States.Simpson, Craig M. is the author of 'Good Southerner The Life of Henry A. Wise of Virginia' with ISBN 9780807849446 and ISBN 0807849448.
