Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of Presidential Elections
I have endeavored to collect and present all important mat ters relating to the presidency, beginning with the constitu tional history of the office, covering every public event and discussion which had a perceptible in?uence in determining who should hold the office, and in connection therewith to note the origin and sketch the history of all political parties, however ephemeral, that rose above the rank of a local faction. And, since one President is different from another, I have tried to show wherein and in what manner the personal quali ties of the Presidents have affected the course of public events and of the national history.
