The Great Republic: A History Of The American People. Little, Brown and Company, Boston: 1977. Hardcover with dustjacket. Reading copy. A magnificent history of the American people from the earliest settlements in the New World to the two-hundredth anniversary of the birth of the United States as a nation. Each of the six sections contains its own thematic emphasis. There are, however, two general themes that unify the book as a whole. The first theme is the development and constant testing of free political institutions in America. Without an understanding o popular self-government from eighteenth-century republicanism to modern political democracy, no sense at all can be made of the history of the American people. A second theme in The Great Republic is the tension between majority rule and minority right. includes an Index. ¶ 1319 pages.
