The US Congress is messed up by anyone‘s definition. But in the decades before the American Civil War, it was - unbelievably - worse. Even to the point of violence on the Capitol floor, mirroring society as a whole as they drove headlong into the Civil War. It‘s quite a story, and Freeman tells it well. And is a bit scary as we see the divisions today and wonder where all this is headed.
