Presidential nominations and elections; a history of American conventions, national campaigns, inaugurations and campaign caricature, with numerous illustrations
Joseph Bucklin Bishop's 1916 history of American nominating conventions, campaigns and inaugurations, published by Scribner's in New York for general readers interested in political history. Plates reproduce nineteenth-century campaign cartoons and convention scenes: crowds on courthouse steps, delegates in packed halls, candidates with horses and buggies, and speech-balloon caricatures useful for period crowd silhouettes, lettering and political symbols.
