This is a greatly expanded and now illustrated second edition of a "Best Reference Book of the Year" (1984) acclaimed by the American Library Association. It provides detailed biographies of the 95 United States major party and significant third-party nominees who were never elected president or vice president in the 53 quadrennial elections from 1788/89 through 1996. New to this fully updated edition are biographies of nominees since 1984 as well as 41 historic third-tier candidates who received at least 2 percent of the popular vote or 5 percent of the electoral votes - and portraits or photographs of every single nominee
