"To her mind the Senate was a place where people went to recite speeches, and she naively assumed that the speeches were useful and had a purpose, but as they did not interest her she never went again. This is a very common conception of Congress; many Congressmen share it." ― H. Adams

"Democracy: An American Novel" by Henry Adams, published anonymously in 1880, is a satirical exploration of political ambition, corruption, and moral compromise in Washington, D.C. during the Gilded Age. The novel's themes include disillusionment with politics, the moral ambiguities of leadership, and the potential for personal integrity to be compromised by power. Although it's set in the late 19th century, it resonates with contemporary readers due to its timeless critique of political machinery and the ethical challenges within democracy.

This new large print edition comes with a beautiful layout designed to make reading comfortable.
