Zusammenfassung: | The 1800 presidential election, the last great contest of the founding period, was so convulsive and so momentous for American democracy that Jefferson would later dub it "America's second revolution." America's first true presidential campaign gave birth to our two-party system and etched the lines of partisanship that have shaped American politics ever since. The contest featured two of our most beloved Founding Fathers, once warm friends, facing off as the heads of their two still-forming parties--the hot-tempered but sharp-minded John Adams, and the eloquent yet enigmatic Thomas Jefferson. Blistering accusations flew: Adams and his elitist Federalists would squelch liberty and impose a British-style monarchy; Jefferson and his radically democratizing Republicans would throw the country into chaos and debase the role of religion in American life. Historian Larson vividly re-creates the tension as Congress was forced to meet in closed session to resolve the outcome.--From publisher description. |

They could write like angels and scheme like
demons. So begins Pulitzer Prize—winner Edward
Larson s masterful account of the wild ride that
was the
1800
presidential election
—
an election
so convulsive and so momentous to the future or
American democracy that Thomas Jefferson would
later dub it America s second revolution.
This was America s first true presidential cam¬
paign, giving birth to our two-party system and
indelibly etching the lines of partisanship that
have so profoundly shaped American politics ever
since. The contest featured two of our most beloved
Founding Fathers, once warm friends, facing off as
the heads of their two still-forming parties
—
the
hot-tempered but sharp-minded John Adams, and
the eloquent yet enigmatic Thomas Jefferson
—
flanked by the brilliant tacticians Alexander
Hamilton and Aaron Burr, who later settled their
own differences in a duel.
The country was descending into turmoil, reel¬
ing from the terrors of the French Revolution, and
on the brink of war with France. Blistering accu¬
sations flew as our young nation was torn apart
along party lines: Adams and his elitist Federalists
would squelch liberty and impose a British-style
monarchy; Jefferson and his radically democratizing
Republicans would throw the country into chaos
and debase the role of religion in American life.
The stakes could not have been higher.
As the competition heated up, other founders
joined the fray
—
James Madison, John Jay, James
Monroe,
Gouverneur
Morris, George Clinton,
John Marshall, Horatio Gates, and even George
Washington
—
some of them emerging from retire-
ment
to respond to the political crisis gripping the
nation and threatening its future.
Drawing on unprecedented, meticulous research
of the day-to-day unfolding drama, from dia-
(conlinued oil
backßap)
(continued from front
βαρ)
ries
and letters of the principal players as well as
accounts in the fast-evolving partisan press, Larson
vividly re-creates the mounting tension as one state
after another voted and the press had the lead
passing back and forth. The outcome remained
shrouded in doubt long after the voting ended, and
as Inauguration Day approached, Congress met in
closed session to resolve the crisis. In its first great
electoral challenge, our fragile experiment in consti¬
tutional democracy hung in the balance.
A Magnificent Catastrophe is history writing at its
evocative best: the riveting story of the last great
contest of the founding period.
Edward J. Larson
is the author of seven books
and the recipient of the
1998
Pulitzer Prize in History for his
book Summer for the Gods: The Scopes
Trial and America s Continuing Debate
Over Science and Religion. His other
books include Evolution: The Remarkable History of a
Scientific Theory; Evolution s Workshop; God and Science on
the Galapagos
biands;
and Trial and Error: The American
Controversy Over Creation and Evolution. Larson has also
written over one hundred articles, most of which
address topics of law, science, or politics from an
historical perspective, which have appeared in such
varied journals as The Atlantic, Nature, Scientific American,
TheNation} The Wihon Quarterly, and Virginia Taw Review.
He is a professor of history and law at Pepperdine
University and lives in Georgia and California.

Larson New York [u.a.] Free Press 2007 xi, 335 S., [4] Bl. Ill. 24 cm txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (p. 277-314) and index The 1800 presidential election, the last great contest of the founding period, was so convulsive and so momentous for American democracy that Jefferson would later dub it "America's second revolution." America's first true presidential campaign gave birth to our two-party system and etched the lines of partisanship that have shaped American politics ever since. The contest featured two of our most beloved Founding Fathers, once warm friends, facing off as the heads of their two still-forming parties--the hot-tempered but sharp-minded John Adams, and the eloquent yet enigmatic Thomas Jefferson. Blistering accusations flew: Adams and his elitist Federalists would squelch liberty and impose a British-style monarchy; Jefferson and his radically democratizing Republicans would throw the country into chaos and debase the role of religion in American life. Historian Larson vividly re-creates the tension as Congress was forced to meet in closed session to resolve the outcome.--From publisher description.
