Most history books paint our past with portraits of presidents, generals, and captains of industry. By the People introduces the multitude of citizens who stood on the front lines when history was being made--the volunteers and associates that shaped us as a people, from the Social Compact of 1620 to the Underground Railroad before the Civil War and the women's suffrage movement.
