Those are GREAT books. I'm breathlessly awaiting Morris's third and
final volume -- about the Bull Moose era.
BTW, American politics were never more nasty than in the years
immediately following the Revolution. It isn't even close. That was NASTY!
What mystifies me is that now, with our far larger population, we can't
find political leaders with nearly as much character, intelligence,
vision, and bravery.
