Abstract
Abstract:
Lydia Maria Child's Juvenile Miscellany (1826-1835) acted as a primer on good and bad political revolutions. Child was eager to protect the legacy of the American Revolution while also rejecting violent revolt. Child's attitudes towards revolutions were influenced by race and American exceptionalism, which this article seeks to examine.
