The basis of this book is Mr Stan wood's History of Presidential Elections The work in its original form has occupied a field peculiarly its own has been recognized as a standard authority cited as such by all recent writers on American history and used as a text book in the leading universities The work is now wholly rewritten as to all the elections prior to 1856 greatly modified in the later chapters and brought down to date by a detailed account of Mr Cleveland's second administration and of the election of 1896 Throughout the work a great amount of new matter has been introduced drawn chiefly from original sources Two new chapters the first discussing the origin development and practical working of the electoral system the other examining the evolution of the National Convention as an extra constitutional supplement of that system greatly enrich the work as a text book of political science The History of the Presidency is the only book in existence which narrates the circumstances of the inception of all national political parties in America and records all their authoritative platforms and it is therefore indispensable to colleges libraries and all students of our political history and institutions
