Excerpt from Jeffersonian Democracy: Which Means the Democracy of Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln
This book is a result of full thirty years" study and observation of political, economic, and industrial conditions in the United States. During the past six years, also, four separate visits to and many months of residence and active work in Europe, have afforded me unusual opportunities for studying European institutions and conditions in comparison with our own.
But the book itself has been hurriedly written during the past winter and spring, while I have carried the responsible direction of the publishing business which is my source of income. For these reasons the work lacks the literary finish, and the completeness of evidence and argument, which I should like to have given it. But I think it carries the essential merit of making my position clear upon the main subjects discussed; and I have faith that the publication of the historic and incontestable facts which I present will do something towards putting the Democratic party back upon the broad highway of Jeffersonian principles and precedents. We need only follow that, to be sure of winning the highest destiny to which the Anglo-Saxon race aspires.
