"Originally commenced as a pastime, and to please a circle of friends alone, success, in any degree, can only be hoped for, because of my vantage ground as an intimate and close friend of Mr. Lincoln, and because, by reason of such intimacy, of the novelty of some of the facts and deductions, and not, in any sense, by reason, but in spite of, its literary style or, rather, the lack thereof."--Preface.

Uses retrospective voting theory, a quantitative political science model for assessing political allegiances, to explore the connections between voters' judgements and public policy in New Hampshire before, during, and after the Civil War. According to this theory, voters base their party loyalty not on proposals for future policy but on their assessment of a candidate's past performance. Draws on correspondence, newspaper editorials, and records of state legislative sessions to analyze politicians' strategies, appeals to voters, and partisan dimensions of legislative behavior.

Nathaniel Hawthorne was an American author that contributed significantly to the dark romanticism genre. Hawthorne was the great grandson of John Hathorne, one of the judges in the Salem witch trials. To hide the shame Nathaniel added the "w" to his last name. Many of Hawthorne's works are set in the New England area and feature the moral allegories found in the time of the Puritans. The Life of Franklin Pierce, published in 1852, is a short biography of the American president. Hawthorne was friends with Pierce going back to their college days and the book is notable for its insight into Pierce's life.
