The McKinley and Roosevelt Administrations, 1897-1909

x, 418 pp. Navy blue cloth, gilt titles. This volume naturally begins with the political campaign of 1896 during which three men absorbed public attention - William McKinley, William Jennings Bryan, and Mark Hanna, and continues through the administration of Theodore Roosevelt, who succeeded McKinley after his assassination. An interesting picture of the United States in the shoulder years of the 19th and 20th centuries.
