He then selects from the House proceedings concerning the Bill of Rights and makes his way toward the public debates concerning the massive revolutionary debt acquired by the United States. The reader is able to examine the American reaction to the French Revolution and to the War of 1812, and to explore the founders' disagreements over both domestic and foreign policy. The collection ends on a somewhat melancholy note with the correspondence of Jefferson and Adams, who were, to some extent, reconciled to each other at the end of their political careers. Brief, elucidatory headnotes place both the novice and the expert in the midst of the times.With this significant new collection, the reader receives a deeper understanding of the complex issues, struggles, and personalities that made up the first great party battle and that continue to shape our representative government today.Lance Banning (1942-2006) was Professor of History at the University of Kentucky, where he had taught since 1973, and was the 2000/2001 Distinguished Professor in the College of Arts and Sciences. He was also coeditor of the University Press of Kansas series "American Political Thought" and the author of many articles, essays, and books on the American founding and first party struggle, including three award-winning books: "Jefferson and Madison: Three Conversations from the Founding," "The Jeffersonian Persuasion: Evolution of a Party Ideology," and "The Sacred Fire of Liberty: James Madison and the Founding of the Federal Republic," the latter two of which were nominated for the Pulitzer Prize.Political scienceUnited StatesHistoryUnited StatesPolitics and government1783-1865SourcesPolitical scienceHistory.324.27322Banning Lance1942-615471MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974375103321Liberty and order4481698UNINA
