Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the Republican party's transformation during the 1930s and 1940s, as it sought to regain power after years of Democratic dominance. The author focuses on the 1940 Republican National Convention, where Wendell Willkie emerged as the party's presidential nominee. Willkie's nomination marked a significant departure from the party's conservative past, as he supported many New Deal policies and advocated a more progressive approach to domestic and foreign affairs. The book examines the challenges faced by the Republican party during this period, including the rise of the New Deal, the Great Depression, and the growing threat of war in Europe. The author also analyzes the party's internal divisions between its conservative and liberal wings, as well as the role of prominent figures such as Herbert Hoover, Alf Landon, and Robert Taft. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the transformation of the Republican party and its efforts to adapt to the changing political landscape of the 20th century.
