The Republicans
Author: Lewis L. GouldPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019994248X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
Lewis L. Gould's 2003 history of the Republican Party was a fast-paced account of Republican fortunes. The Republicans won praise for its even-handed, incisive analysis of Republican history, drawing on Gould's deep knowledge of the evolution of national political history and acute feel for the interplay of personalities and ideology. In this revised and updated edition, Gould extends this history, adding a new chapter on the George W. Bush presidency, the election of 2008, and the response of the Grand Old Party to Barack Obama. His narrative covers such contemporary figures as Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin, and John McCain, as well as forgotten Republican leaders including James G. Blaine, Mark Hanna, Wendell Willkie, and Robert A. Taft. Contending that the historic Republican skepticism about the legitimacy of the Democratic Party has shaped American politics since the Civil War, Gould argues that the persistent flaw in the relations between the two parties has led the nation to the current crisis of stalemate and partisan bitterness. No other account of Republican history is as up-to-date, crammed with fascinating information, and ready to serve as an informed guide to today's partisan warfare. Lay readers and political junkies alike seeking the best book on Republican history will find what they are looking for in Gould's comprehensive volume.
Herbert Hoover, President of the United States

Book Description
In the long life of Herbert Hoover, the four years as president of the United States, 1929-1933, sometimes appear as only an interlude in a fruitful public career. Yet those years in the life of the nation were of crucial significance. The decades that have passed since then have revealed how the political and economic struggles in those presidential years shook the foundations of government in the United States. Action in the national interest was made exceedingly difficult as the special interests of states and sections, and the demands of local constituencies on their elected representatives in the nation's capital, inhibited action. That political conflict, which occurred at a crossroads in American history, is the primary concern of this book.
