Summary
Hofstadter writes of the compromises and what he sees as lapses in principle on the part of the founding fathers as well as by Jefferson, Jackson, Calhoun, Lincoln, Wendell Phillips, William Jennings Bryan, Theodore Roosevelt, Wilson, Hoover, and FDR. Originally published in 1948, this classic study of figures in American politics represented a new way of seeing American history and a new way of writing about it.
