Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A double bill of the classic 70's thrillers featuring an
Oscar-winning Gene Hackman as 'Popeye' Doyle. In the first film
Doyle and Buddy Russo (Roy Scheider) are tough New York cops
attempting to crack a drug smuggling ring. They have a small candy
store under surveillance, but Doyle is not happy when he receives
the order to work with a pair of French federal agents on the case,
one of whom he has a long-standing feud with. Hackman and director
William Friedkin both earned Oscars for the film, which also took
the award for Best Picture. Whilst in the sequel Doyle (Hackman)
travels to Marseilles to track down Charnier (Fernando Rey), the
leader of a drug smuggling ring whom he failed to capture in the
first film. Kidnapped by dealers and pumped with heroin, Doyle has
to kick his new-found habit before he can set about his revenge.
"On rare occasions, an anthology comes along that reshapes
scholarship in an entire field. "The Democratic Experiment" shows
how to join culture and class, elections and the growth of the
state, taxes and political theory into a fresh, unromantic
understanding of power in the public sphere. With this splendid
volume, a new political history has finally come of age."--Michael
Kazin, author of "The Populist Persuasion: An American History"
"Political history is back. In a whirlwind of pent-up energy,
this volume announces that questions about governmental capacity,
suffrage and citizenship, sedition, constitutional amendment, court
reform, inflation and consumerism, interest group electioneering,
local government experimentation, antitax and antibussing revolts,
the role of liberalism, and the partisan politics of family values
are (and must be) on the agenda of historians. Its long-awaited
return from the desert finds it better and stronger, more nuanced
and inclusive, than before its exile. Readers will
rejoice."--Elizabeth Sanders, author of "Roots of Reform: Farmers,
Workers, and the American State 1887-1917"
"Those who have wondered what the future holds for American
political history need wonder no more. In form and exposition, in
theory and practice, "The Democratic Experiment" gives all the
notice one could want of the exciting new directions that the genre
is taking, and introduces the scholars who are leading its
renewal."--Christopher Tomlins, American Bar Foundation,
Chicago
"This superb collection of essays bring a welcome sophistication
to the historical study of American politics--its culture and
institutions."--Joyce Appleby, author of "Inheriting the
Revolution: The First Generation of Americans"
"This is a terrific book--ambitious, iconoclastic, elegant,
persuasive, exciting. The authors aim to reorient historians, rope
in political scientists, and--at their most ambitious--reread
America. They succeed on nearly every dimension. Each chapter
raises issues that both historians and political scientists will be
keen to engage. The collection adds up to a sustained, coherent
whole, argued in many different keys and pitches. Very nice work
indeed."--James A. Morone, Brown University, author of "Hellfire
Nation"
"This book represents a job extremely well done. It offers a
richer historical account of democratic conflicts than have most
historically savvy political scientists. I particularly appreciate
the attention to the nineteenth century, which is rarely explored
in such depth among scholars of political history. Moreover, I do
not think there is another volume that engages democratic conflict
as comprehensively as does this one. "The Democratic Experiment"
will enrich our understanding of liberal and democratic aspirations
in America."--Sidney M. Milkis, University of Virginia, author of
"Political Parties and Constitutional Government"
