Who Were the Stalwarts? Who Were Their Rivals? Republican Factions in the Gilded Age
Allan Peskin takes a close look at Republican party factionalism in the late nineteenth century through a collective biography of the delegates to the Republican convention of 1880. He concludes that these factions were not held together solely by patronage, but instead exhibited striking demographic and other distinctions which accounted for their different views on issues and political strategy.
