This volume specifically covers the period of American expansion from 1888 to 1902, delving into critical political, social, and economic developments of the time, including significant events such as presidential campaigns, demographic changes, and the impact of major legislation. The narrative likely highlights the evolution of American governance, societal norms, and its burgeoning role on the international stage. At the start of this volume, Andrews outlines the socio-political climate leading into the late 19th century, focusing on a wave of constitutional reforms aimed at restructuring state laws in the aftermath of the Civil War. He discusses the introduction of the Australian ballot system and its effects on voting practices, as well as the contentious political landscape surrounding the presidential campaigns of Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison. Furthermore, the volume hints at the complex dynamics of race relations in the South, particularly regarding the disenfranchisement of African Americans, setting the stage for exploring the conflicts and transformations that characterized this era as America emerged as a more industrialized and influential nation.
