Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""The Second Battle Or The New Declaration Of Independence, 1776-1900"" is a historical account written by William Jennings Bryan in 1900. The book chronicles the events leading up to the presidential election of 1900, which was a turning point in American politics. Bryan argues that the election was a second battle for the principles of the Declaration of Independence, which had been eroded by the rise of big business and the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few. He describes the struggles of ordinary Americans against the power of corporations and the political machines that supported them. Bryan also discusses the role of imperialism and the Spanish-American War in shaping the political landscape of the time. Overall, ""The Second Battle"" is a passionate defense of democracy and a call to action for those who believe in the principles of the American Revolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
