……关于这个主题的读物，我会由衷推荐它，还有 Manisha Sinha 的《The Counterrevolution of Slavery: Politics and Ideology in Antebellum South Carolina》[2]。最后，James McPherson 那本精彩绝伦的《Battle Cry of Freedom》[3] 贯穿全书都触及了这些问题，不过角度要更宏观一些。毫无疑问，南方贫困白人和自耕农的工资都受到了奴隶制的打压，并且……

There's no question that poor southern whites and yeomen farmers both saw their wages depressed by slavery and…
……作品。* Epp 的《离散数学及其应用》——我没从头到尾读完，但它给了我底子，让我真能看懂上一项里那些书到底在讲些什么鬼* MacPherson 的《Battle Cry of Freedom》是我读的第一本真正干货满满的历史书。事实证明我超喜欢这类书。还有很多很多，但对于这次讨论，先打住在这里挺合适的。
…work. * Discrete Math with Applications by Epp -- I didn't read it all the way through but gave me the foundations to actually understand what the hell the books in the last bullet were talking about * Battle Cry of Freedom by MacPherson was the first really meaty historical book I read. Turns out I like those a lot. So many more but this seems like a reasonable place to stop for this discussion.
…great truths can be boiled down to 240 pages. Rather, learning about people's experiences and stories on there own terms helps you develop a much more nuanced worldview. For example, I'm reading The Battle Cry of Freedom, an overview of the Civil War, and it's astounding how much more insight a book about something 150 years ago offers into today's society than just about any of the Gladwell genre stuff.
我也一直在读《The Battle Cry of Freedom》，太震撼了。作者在每一页里塞进的分析和洞察力简直不可思议。而且所有那些政治、社会和历史层面的见解，在今天同样具有极高的适用性……
I've also been reading The Battle Cry of Freedom and it's been amazing. The analysis and insights the author can pack into every single page is just incredible. And all those political, social, and historical insights have just as much applicability…
……局外人。对于大多数人来说，历史著作——由局外人撰写——是我们社会和文化理解自身的方式。我最近读完了一本优秀的南北战争单卷通史《Battle Cry of Freedom》。作者是历史学家 James McPherson。这本书不仅丰富了我对南北战争的理解，也让我明白了其爆发的前因。我认为这个背景对于理解现在的走向……至关重要
…outside. Historical work for most people - produced by those on the outside - is how our society and culture understands itself. I recently finished an excellent one volume history of the Civil War, "Battle Cry of Freedom." It was written by James McPherson, a historian. This book has informed my understanding of not just the Civil War, but also the lead up to it. I believe this context is essential for understanding where…
……事——但他们并没有。如果你觉得他们有，那我猜你对南北战争的理解要么来自所谓联邦的教育，要么来自电影。如果是这样的话，去读读历史书吧（《Battle Cry of Freedom》是个不错的起点），你会发现要相信联邦打仗是为了解放黑奴根本站不住脚。这种“道德十字军”的废话至今还在全美到处招摇撞骗，简直就是一个……
…thing--but they didn't. If you think they did, then I'm guessing your understanding of the civil war comes from your education by said Union, or from movies. If this is the case, read a history book (Battle Cry of Freedom is a good start) and you'll find it impossible to believe that the Union fought the war to free the slaves. That the "moral crusade" nonsense is still peddled throughout the United States is a simple…

……大道理能浓缩成 240 页。相反，从人们自身的角度去了解他们的经历和故事，有助于你建立一个更加细致入微的世界观。举个例子，我正在读《The Battle Cry of Freedom》，一本南北战争的通史，令人震惊的是，一本讲述 150 年前事情的书，对当今社会的洞察力居然远超几乎所有 Gladwell 式的畅销书。
