On 2 and 3 September 1896, in a packed hall at Indianapolis, a dissident wing of American Democrats broke ranks. The stakes were extraordinarily high. With the nation bitterly divided over gold standard politics 1896 and the looming presidential contest, the National Democratic Party met to define its conscience, its candidate, and its future. Proceedings Of The Convention Of The National Democratic Party Held At Indianapolis, Indiana September 2 And 3 1896 preserves the complete convention proceedings 1896 in full: formal addresses, party convention transcripts, nominations, resolutions and votes. As a historical primary source document of the democratic party split 1896, these political convention proceedings give an unvarnished record of arguments over money, the Constitution and political loyalty. It is essential reading for presidential election 1896 history, Gilded Age American politics and Indianapolis Indiana political history, offering rich context and detail for political historians and as research material for students, while remaining vivid and accessible to the general reader interested in national democratic party history. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this heritage volume speaks equally to serious researchers, casual readers of American history and classic document collectors who value original voices from a turning point in the nation's political life.
