Anyhing at all where Garrison et al call the Constitution a compact with the devil? Or that it was a covenant with death and agreement with hell? Garrison's name does not appear in the index.
There are 7 words quoted from Wendell Phillips on page 78. Leaving the old power structure in place, wrote abolitionist Wendell Phillips, "makes the negro's freedom a mere sham."

Garrison made a splash as an abolitionist well before the Republican Party was founded, but he had no significant inluence in the GOP meriting a mention in such a concise history of a 150-year old political party.
The quote about ex-slaves being "mere serfs" is also form Phillips, I think (book not in front of me).

There are 7 words quoted from Wendell Phillips on page 78Wow. A book on the Republican Party, and Mr. Z neglects to include some of the more famous members of the party - I wonder why?
