Review
"Rutland's prose is clear, precise, and entertaining. Words, phrases, statistical data, and quotations are chosen carefully to hold the reader's interest and convey the exact meaning intended. Because of this, the narrative never becomes a monotonous and somewhat encyclopedic recital of one presidential election after another. Rutland achieves his objective in identifying the philosophical foundations of the Democratic party and its differences as compared to its rivals while also providing an analysis of its past as an integral part of the mainstream of the history of the United States. . . . A perceptive and engaging survey that can be thoroughly enjoyed by the professional historian and layman alike."--Journal of Southern History
