Seller's Description:
Good. No dust jacket. Cover has some wear and soiling. 425 p. 29 cm. Illustrations, Portraits. Foreword by Luther H. Evans, the Librarian of Congress. This book, which shows how the American democracy has provided itself with images of its leaders for over a century of an half, gives us powerful reasons to believe that democracy and leadership are but different phases of the same process. The abstract notion of a democratic State assumes concreteness in the visible persone of its elected chief magistrate. The pictorial sources for American history in all its phases, require the same careful study and critical treatment as the others sources. Books such as this afford a keener and more vivid realization of the American Past. Covers Presidents from Washington to Truman.
