Pictorial History of the Republican Party

Description

Keep Cool with Coolidge ... Happy Landin' with Landon ... Hike with Ike ... Go with Goldwater ... American will long remember the Grand Old Party's contributions to the colorful tapestry of American life. Now, for the first time, critically acclaimed author Beryl Frank guides you through a rich visual dialogue in her brilliant 187 page volume; The Pictoral Histmy of The Republican Party. In this beautiful collector's edition, you'll travel to the Party's humble beginnings in a tiny school house in Ripon, Wisconsin. You'll join President McKinley's 1896 campaign on the front porch of his home in Canton, Ohio. You'll march by torchlight in New York and Boston chanting support for Lincoln and Grant. You'll witness the 1964 convention and the historic moment that gave rise to Barry Goldwater and the conservative movement. It's not often a volume of this caliber and historical significance comes along on the American literary scene. Ms. Frank has done a spectacular job culling the finest photographs from private collections and the libraries of the Smithsonian Institution in Washingotn, D.C. After all these years, we finally have a fitting tribute to the Party of Lincoln, the Party of Teddy Roosevelt, the Part of Ike and the Party of Reagan ... the Wigwam, Teddy's Dawg and much more . . . available only to members of Ronald Reagan's Republican Presidential Task Force. There's no other collection like it available anywhere. Pennants, buttons, souvenirs, cartoons, platforms, songs, banners and front page headlines; it's all right here in The Pictoral Histmy of The Republican Party. A "must read" for every Task Force member who shares President Reagan's commitment to the values, ideals and principles of the Republican Party.
