In March 1854, a group of men gathered to form a political party in America. They were opposed to the spread of slavery, supported high taxes on imported goods, and were in favor of homesteading. Containing photographs, this work examines the development of the Republican Party, including its prominent figures, key events, and ideological trends.

Подробна, информативна, завладяваща за четене - представя историята на Републиканците от Линкълн до Буш-младши. Препоръчвам за симпатизантите на тази политическа сила и интересуващите се от история на САЩ изобщо.
