Long painted by historians as a vindictive “dictator of Congressâ€, out to punish the South at the behest of big business and his own ego, Thaddeus Stevens receives a more balanced treatment in Hans L. Trefousse's biography, which portrays him as an impassioned orator and a leader in the struggle against slavery.
