In 1856, South Carolina Congressman Preston Brooks assaulted Massachusetts Senator Charles Sumner with a cane in the US Capitol, defending his family's honor and the rights of slaveholders. Paul Quigley offers a gripping new perspective on Brooks and the act of violence that played a central role in the polarization that led to the Civil War.
