This is a non-fiction book that details a dozen major events in
American history that were resolved by a single vote...the action
of a single individual that changed the direction of our country.
It occasionally moved our nation into the dark but more often it
moved us in the direction of curing inequities that had evolved
through decades of history. We live in a period of economic and
political unrest and we believe it to be worse than at any time in
our history...but it may not be America's two hundred plus years of
existence has been one of turmoil, dissension, and war. It has been
a time of alternating economic growth and stagnation. Each decade
has found stalwarts and dissenters convinced that they, alone, have
the best solution for the country's ills. A surprising number of
events that altered the country's direction resulted from the vote
of a single individual either in support of a change or opposed to
it. Names such as James Bayard, Edmund Ross, and Joseph Bradley are
unknown, but during their lifetimes they altered the fabric or our
nation as significantly as Americans whose names are more famous.
This book, By One Vote, tells these stories. The events are
factual; the dramatizations surrounding them are the studied
imagination of the author.
