Citizen Bachelors: Manhood and the Creation of the United States
Citizen Bachelors examines unmarried men as a distinct and politically significant group in early America. John Gilbert McCurdy traces how communities alternately relied on and distrusted single men, then shows how the Revolution changed their access to property, military service, voting, and civic standing. The book reveals bachelorhood as a key category in the development of American masculinity and citizenship.
