Abstract:
During their lifetimes they were severely criticized. Lawrence writes biographical sketches of each one, revealing that in the majority of instances, future developments proved them to be right. The men were John Sevier, Thomas Person, Archibald D. Murphey, Calvin Graves, Hinton Rowan Helper, William H. Haywood, Alfred Dockery, Albion W. Tourgee, and Thomas Settle.
