For over a century, from 1854, the year the party was organized,
until 1958, Vermonters never failed to elect Republicans to its
state and national offices, and every four years they returned a
slate of electors pledged to the Republican presidential nominee.
The Vermont GOP was trumpeted as the star that never set in the
Republican Party's political firmament, until the decline of family
farms and the influx of Democrat-leaning urbanites in the 1960s and
1970s eroded the bedrock of Vermont's GOP base. Encompassing the
years 1854 to 1974, Samuel Hand's superb historical study documents
the rise and fall of Vermont republicanism, exploring the
personalities and the religious, political, and social institutions
that constituted the Vermont Republican Party. More than simply the
authoritative telling of a remarkable century of hegemony for the
Vermont GOP, The Star That Set is a compelling story of the waning
importance of party in modern American political life.
