A Magnificent Catastrophe tells the story of the most perverse, bizarre, nail-biting, and influential election battle ever in U.S. history: America's first true presidential campaign, and a contest so important to the future of the country that Jefferson referred to it as "the second American Revolution" because the outcome resolved so much unfinished business about just what kind of government we would have. This election in many ways determined just how democratic a country we would be.

While the author makes no reference to the politics that currently divide our country, the parallels will be obvious to every well informed reader. To read of the birth of the political machinations of 1800 that continue to define our two party system was enlightening. The book is a good read, a well told narrative, with enough incorporation of primary sources to assure historical accuracy.
