Description:

Recounting and analyzing the course of American politics between 1888 and 1901, this book traces the decade's party battles and the development of a national party system. Based on thorough research, it follows the initial triumph of the Republicans from 1888-1891 ... the sweeping comeback of the Democrats and their governing philosophy between 1890 and 1894 ... the bankruptcy of Democratic party tenents in the crushing depression after 1893 ... the important challenge of the Populists ... and the ultimate triumph of the Republicans. -- from Back Cover.
