The Story Of The Nonpartisan League

The Story of the Nonpartisan League: A Chapter in American Evolution is a historical book written by Charles Edward Russell and published in 1920. The book recounts the rise and fall of the Nonpartisan League, a political movement that emerged in the early 20th century in the American Midwest. The League was founded by farmers and laborers who were frustrated with the corrupt political system and the economic hardships they faced. The movement sought to create a nonpartisan political party that would represent the interests of ordinary people, particularly farmers. Russell provides a detailed account of the League's origins, its growth, and its eventual decline. He describes the League's leaders, their strategies, and their successes and failures. He also examines the opposition the League faced from established political parties, business interests, and the media. The book is not only a history of the Nonpartisan League but also a reflection on the broader political and economic issues of the time. Russell argues that the League was part of a larger movement of progressive reform that sought to address the inequalities and injustices of American society. He also explores the role of the League in shaping the political landscape of the Midwest and its impact on national politics. Overall, The Story of the Nonpartisan League is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American politics and the struggle for social justice in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
