Book Synopsis The Invention of the American Political Parties by : Roy Franklin Nichols
Book excerpt: This volume goes back into time to seek out the divergent and sometimes contradictory legal principles and practices which, bit by bit, created an accumulating mosaic -- the American political system of self-government. The author maintains that this system reached maturity in the 1850, a few years before its severest test, during the American Civil War. This book provides a summary of constitutional-political antecedents with some elements of the old "germinal, organic growth" views of self governing institutions.
