Tariff wars and the politics of Jacksonian America

William K. Bolt (Author)
"This book analyzes the tariff debates in Congress during the Age of Jackson.

This first major work on the tariff in more than 100 years argues that the tariff helped to draw more Americans into the political process"-- Provided by publisher
