Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Code for Classifiers' is a foundational treatise on the principles and practices of book classification within library systems. Written by William Stetson Merrill, this work serves as a practical guide for librarians and catalogers, offering a set of consistent rules to ensure that books are placed logically and helpfully within a collection.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book charts the downfall of the powerful coalition of politicians and interests which drove Woodrow Wilson's progressive reforms after 1916. The author argues that cracks began to appear in 1918 among rural voters in the Midwest, many of whom felt betrayed by the administration's agricultural policies during wartime. Further cracks emerged after the war, when a combination of Wilson's illness and his appointees' opportunism triggered an erosion in the Democratic party's identity. The book highlights the role of Attorney General Palmer's "Red Scare" tactics in alienating immigrant voters and civil libertarians, ultimately contributing to the party's losses in the 1920 election. This detailed analysis of the Wilson coalition offers valuable insights into the complexities of progressive politics and the fragility of political alliances in a period of social and economic transformation.
