"__Perry Miller, like all great historians__, in Reinhold Niebuhr's words, "__was both scientist and artist__." That combination is nowhere better seen in his work than in this posthumous work. For years Miller had been engaged in a vast enterprise that would continue the history of American mind begun with his definitive two-volume account of the intellectual life of New England.From manuscript in progress at his death, virtually two-thirds of the planned first volume of__The Life of the Mind in America__was found in finished form. It includes 'Book One, The Evangelical Basis', 'Book Two, The Legal Mentality', and 'Book Three, Science: Theoretical and Applied'.Winner of the 1966 Pulitzer Prize in History,__The Life of the Mind in America: From the Revolution to the Civil War__is a permanent contribution to American letters."__Perry Miller was the great intellectual historian of our generation, and this magnificent torso of a book is his legacy and monument__." -- Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
