John Brown tried to lead a slave revolt. He was a fervent 'abolitionist' opposing the practice of slavery. His methods of persuasion included killing opponents. The 'cause' may have been noble, but the method was terrorism. He is most famous for a raid on a Federal Armory in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia in 1859. He was later captured, tried in court, convicted, and hanged. Some say he was crazy, others say visionary, most agree that he was part of the cause of the Civil War/War of Northern Aggression.
His actions helped to spark-off the American Civil War.
