Synopsis

This major reference work provides complete returns for the gubernatorial elections by state and county for the period 1776 to 1860, information nowhere else available in one volume, and much of it pieced together through years of research of original sources. One section contains the statewide returns by year. The next section, arranged by state and then by year, provides the election returns, with each candidate's name, party, number of votes and percentage of votes. Explanatory footnotes and source information abound. Researchers familiar with Mr. Dubin's massive work on Congressional elections (a Booklist "Editors' Choice") will understand the scope, detail, accuracy and uniqueness of this new work.
