John Brown's Raid: Harpers Ferry and the Coming of the Civil War

Historian and author Kevin Pawlak discusses his most recent book, John Brown's Raid: Harpers Ferry and the Start of the Civil War: October 16-18, 1859. The first shot of the American Civil War was not fired on April 12, 1861, in Charleston, South Carolina, but instead came on October 16, 1859, in Harpers Ferry, Virginia—or so claimed former slave turned abolitionist Frederick Douglass.
