Summary Though suicide is an individual act, Richard Bell reveals its broad social implications in early America. From Revolution to Reconstruction, everyone-parents, newspapermen, ministers and abolitionists alike-debated the meaning of suicide as a portent of danger or of possibility in a new nation struggling to define itself and its power.
