Realigning America: McKinley, Bryan, and the Remarkable Election of 1896 (American Presidential Elections)
"Vintage Williams - an epic story meticulously researched, insightfully argued, and vividly told. This fresh, authoritative account changes our understanding of one of the most momentous elections in the nation's history." Michael McGerr, author of The Decline of Popular Politics: The American North, 1865-1928 "Superb, written with his customary grace and skill, well informed about the issues, and balanced in its point of view. It should replace all previous treatments of the election and find a ready market in courses on presidential elections, the Gilded Age, and American politics in general. In short, a winner." Lewis L. Gould, author of The Presidency of William McKinley"
