Sobre IBD

An Exemplary Whig examines the life and thought of Edward Kent, a nineteenth-century state political leader and judge and Maine's quintessential Whig. It reveals Kent's characteristically conservative Whig aversion toward disorder and his deep respect for law, existing institutions, and the wisdom of experience. David Gold shows how Kent carried the Whig persuasion into the Republican ascendancy and the beginnings of the Gilded Age.
