Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the emergence of Republican power within the United States in the years after the American Civil War (1861-1865). It analyzes the motivations of so-called Stalwart Republicans in Congress as their power grew, the strategies they used to maintain influence, and the ways by which they reshaped the nation's social and political landscape. The author argues that Stalwart Republicans created a new form of Republicanism that was far removed from the radicalism of the early GOP and that they were crucial to the formation of the party's political machine, which promoted the economic interests of a rising class of industrialists. The book also discusses how the Stalwarts' focus on monetary issues such as the gold standard, protective tariffs and tax cuts helped usher in a new era of economic favoritism for big business. This book will be of great interest to anyone interested in the history of American politics, the Republican Party, or the social and economic changes that occurred in the United States in the late 19th century.
