A slaveholding aristocrat and a powerful politician whose ideas and actions helped to shape the antebellum and Civil War periods, James Murray Mason built a career that encompassed virtually all of the critical events and issues of his day. In the first full-scale biography of Mason, Robert W. Young traces the fascinating life of power politics led by this quintessential representative of the Old South. Through his examination of the conservative causes that Mason consistently championed - strict Constitutional interpretation, states' rights, and slavery - Young opens a window onto the early-nineteenth-century southern society in which Mason lived.
