- Summary:
- "This book tells the story of American party ideology development by chronicling the ideas and rhetoric articulated by the two major parties throughout U.S. history: from the Federalists and Republicans of the late eighteenth century, to the Whigs and Democrats of the mid-nineteenth century, to the Republicans and Democrats of today. Unlike most scholars of American party ideologies, I emphasize how they have changed over time rather than how they have stayed the same"-- Provided by publisher.
