Rude republic

Americans and their politics in the nineteenth century

Edición de la obra Rude Republic

"Historians have depicted the nineteenth century as an era of intense and wide-spread political enthusiasm. In this look at Americans and their politics, Glenn Altschuler and Stuart Blumin argue for a more complex understanding of the "space" occupied by politics in nineteenth-century American society and culture. Mining such sources as diaries, letters, autobiographies, novels, cartoons, contested-election voter testimony to state legislative committees, and the partisan newspapers of representative American communities ranging from Massachusetts and Georgia to Texas and California, the authors explore a wide range of political actions and attitudes."--BOOK JACKET.
