Reveals that the relationship between the president and Congress, though sometimes contentious, was cooperative rather than adversarial. Harris draws intriguing sketches of nineteenth-century congressional leaders and shows that, contrary to what historians have traditionally concluded, radical Republicans did not dominate their party or Congress.
