If you have been looking for a way to help education, donate this book to your favorite high school. Each of its self-contained chapters capsules of four years of political history from George Washington to the 1996 Clinton, Dole and Perot campaign. Both Cornog and Wheeler have other historical books to their credit, but this encompasses the serious, the ridiculous, the sublime, in each era since our nation began.
Contemporary cartoons instruct while they entertain.
Boxed quotes from primary sources give a real flavor. This did, however, help to promote our Social Security system under Roosevelt. The use of campaign buttons, the odd names of political factions like Locofoco, Barnburners and Hunkers. The list is endless. Please hurry to buy this for the high school library of your choice.
