Reseñas
Walter A. MacDougall has written a superb history. Revisionist, in the best sense, this book skewers Jeffersonian hypocrisy, the Protestant ascendancy, and various other archetypes that have been so long cherished. In the process, MacDougall casts a new light on the emergence of Colonial America as a product of Stuart foreign policy, more than of Puritain nervous energy. On the matter of Freemasonry, MacDougall is delightfully conspiratorial (not that the evidence doesn't aqccumulate all by itself), seeing masons at every switching point.
Too often, books are touted as bringing a "fresh perspective" to the content they describe. But this is precisely what Professor MacDougal has done. In the words of Anatole Broyard - about a volume he reviewed many years ago - "I would admire this book even if it was wrong."
