From the Book - First edition.
To hope rather than to fear
The confidence of the whole people: visions of the presidency, the ideas of progress and prosperity, and 'We, the people'
The long shadow of Appomattox: the Lost Cause, the Ku Klux Klan, and Reconstruction
With soul of flame and temper of steel: "the melting pot," TR and his "bully pulpit," and the progressive promise
A new and good thing in the world: the triumph of women's suffrage, the Red Scare, and a new Klan
The crisis of the old order: the Great Depression, Huey Long, the New Deal, and America First
Have you no sense of decency?: 'making everyone middle class," the GI Bill, McCarthyism, and modern media
What the hell is the presidency for?: 'segregation forever,' King's crusade, and LBJ in the crucible
The first duty of an American citizen.
