A "narrative history of the boom and the bust, the Happy Warrior and the forgotten man, Teapot Dome and Huey Long, Roosevelt and Hopkins--from the jazz age and the Depression to Pearl Harbor.".
An historical narrative of the early United Sates as dominated and influenced by Jefferson, Monroe, Madison, and John Quincy Adams. Pictures the first quarter of the 19th century as abounding in both patriots and scoundrels-enough to make for fascinating reading.
