Publisher's Synopsis
It is undisputed that the Republican Party has changed dramatically since the 1940s and '50s. But the exact nature of that change - and how it came to be - remain subject to debate. Jeffrey Stonecash meticulously assesses the cumulative effect of a range of contentious issues in US politics to shed light on the decisions that party leaders have made to attract voters, the essence of today's party, and what this all means in terms of the current political climate.
