Inhoud:

This book chronologically tells the birth, life, and death of the Whigs, a major American political party that was the country's last and best hope to avert secession. Michael Holt has reconstructed, and recaptured, what politicians - including Andrew Jackson, John C.Calhoun, Daniel Webster and others - thought they were doing and why.
