“This engrossing book recounts a series of remarkable stories about our country's hard-fought battles for freedom of expression. Taken together, these often-inspiring tales show how our current reverence for free speech evolved and emerged painfully through Americans' bitter and sometimes bloody experience. Free Speech: ‘The People's Darling Privilege’ is a must-read for everyone who cares about the First Amendment.”—Nadine Strossen, President, American Civil Liberties Union and Professor, New York Law School
“Curtis fills in a missing piece of our social history—the social history of political dissent and of agitative speech during nearly six decades, culminating in the Civil War and the adoption of the three Reconstruction Amendments.”—William W. Van Alstyne, Duke University School of Law
“This book is a major contribution to scholarship on the history of free speech in the United States from 1800 through the Civil War.”—David Rabban, University of Texas School of Law
