abstract="This narrative about Charles Francis Adams Jr. sheds light on the intersections among manhood, race, failure, and self-making in the Civil War era. Adams's obsession with the plight of blacks was entangled with his own confusion about white men's control over their destinies-that is, about who properly qualified for membership in a “republic of ‘self-made men.’”<p />",
