From the collection of Betty Anderson, legendary art director of publisher Knopf in the late 20th century as evidenced by her (small and unobtrusive) inventory number and signature on the front paste down; The Dream of Deliverance in American Politics is an exploration of the ways in which the dream of deliverance has shaped American politics and the ways in which it continues to shape American politics. The book argues that the dream of deliverance has been a central part of American political culture since the early days of the Republic and that it has been a major factor in the development of American political institutions. The book focuses on the ways in which the dream of deliverance has been a source of inspiration for American politicians and has played a role in the development of American political ideology. The book also discusses the ways in which the dream of deliverance has been a source of tension and conflict in American politics and has played a role in the development of American political polarization.; 8vo; FSA .
