Summary:
"Vermont's story is filled with rebellious individuals and collective outbursts, people and moments that forged its path as a small, independent state with a strong sense of how to preserve its traditions while changing with the times. Restless Spirits & Popular Movements revisits this unique history through memorable events and people who helped create the delicate balance of sovereignty and solidarity, political independence and mutual aid known as the Vermont Way. The book explores Vermont's past and values through the exploits of Vermonters like revolutionary leaders Matthew Lyon and Ethan Allen; Anti-Mason Governor William Palmer and feminist pioneer Clarina Nichols; railroad and marble tycoons, anti-slavery activists, socialist activists and labor protesters; Vermont-born Presidents Chester Arthur and Calvin Coolidge; progressive innovators like James Burke and Ernest Gibson; modern political leaders like Phil Hoff, Richard Snelling, Madeleine Kunin, James Jeffords, Howard Dean, and Bernie Sanders; and even a Vermonter who rescued America from Joseph McCarthy. It is an attempt to look back at Vermont's past with fresh eyes, recast the drama, correct the record, and reclaim stories lost, distorted or buried along the way"--
