"Before the Fire ohn Brown was born at the dawn of the nineteenth century and died on the eve of the Civil War. He is seen today by some as a hero and martyr, by others as a terrorist. His story raises questions that are as important now as they were in his day: How far should a person go to support a cause? Is it ever right to commit acts of violence, even murder, for a goal believed to be noble and just? Brown fought to end slavery in the United States. His fight was part of a larger national struggle, one that had been building since the early days of the American colonies."
