The largest single feature of the book is its record of the proceedings of the Republican National Convention of 1896, which it gives with a close approach to absolute completeness. This presents the speeches of the Convention's Temporary Chairman and Permanent President; the platform; the committees; the rules by which the Convention was governed; the speeches on both sides in the contests for seats; the silver substitute for the financial plank of the platform; Senator Teller's address in favor of the substitute; the votes by which the substitute was rejected and the financial plank adopted; the silverites' protest and valedictory read by Senator Cannon; the bolt of the silver men and the scenes attending it; the speeches presenting the various aspirants for President and Vice-President and the votes for each, and all in the order in which they occurred. The speeches, platform, rules and silver men's protest are given verbatim and the votes are all given by States. All are presented in attractive shape for permanent reference.

Excerpt from Four Days at the National Republican Convention: St. Louis, June, 1896, and Other Political Occasions We are accustomed to pay superlative tribute to the great soldiers of our country. Washington and Greene and Schuyler and Gates, of the Revolution ary period, and General Scott and General Jackson and Commodores Decatur and Perry, of the war of 1812, and Grant and Sherman and Sheridan, are all embalmed in the richest rhetoric of our history, the most stirring pages of the schoolbooks and the most glowing periods of our eloquence. In lesser measure we glorify the statesmen of the Republic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
