Description:This brief history of the Republican Party is an account of the background, public policies, struggles over leadership, issues and directions of one of America’s two major political parties. The Republican Party rose to power in part of the realignment of sectional interests. Population growth in the North and West, accompanied by demand for inexpensive land, transportation improvement, and enlarged opportunity for free labor, propelled political change. Opposition to the extension of slavery, mounting in moral fervor to a crusade, made change irresistible. By the end of the nineteenth century a majority of Americans, both workingmen and businessmen, has made the Republican Party their political home. Then, in the second quarter of the twentieth century, the Republican Party became engulfed in a maelstrom of worldwide depression and faced a virtual nationalization of the Democratic Party. Cataclysms of economic and moral pressures have often brought about major shifts in American political allegiance, and may well do so again.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
