The Climax of Populism: The Election of 1896
ISBN: 9780813151977 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Rarely has a third political party in the United States exerted a force upon national events comparable to that of the Populists during the 1890s. This force reached its climax in the presidential race of 1896, when the national reforms epitomized in the cry for free silver were at issue. Yet despite a number of recent studies, confusion and error regarding the Populists in the crucial election of 1896 still persist. Robert F. Durden, by extensive use of the papers of Marion Butler, Populist senator from North Carolina and national chairman of the party during the campaign, sheds new...

The Self-Inflicted Wound: Southern Politics in the Nineteenth Century
ISBN: 9780813160191 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The essentially tragic political fate of the American South in the nineteenth century resulted from what Robert F. Durden calls a "self-inflicted wound" -- the gradual surrender of the white majority to the pride, fears, and hates of racism. In this gracefully written and closely reasoned study, Durden traces the course of southern political life from the predominantly optimistic, nationalistic Jeffersonian era to the sullenly sectional, chronically defensive decades following the Civil War. Politics, as the clearest reflection of the southern electorate's collective hopes and fears,...
