Summary: "Our Presidents and how we make them" by Alexander K. McClure is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed examination of the presidential elections in the United States, exploring the historical contexts, contests, and political dynamics that shaped each election. It aims to present not only the outcomes of these elections but also the character and selection process of America's leaders. The opening of the work sets the stage for an in-depth analysis of presidential elections, beginning with George Washington's presidency and outlining how these contests have been pivotal in the political evolution of the nation. McClure emphasizes the unique role the presidency holds within American politics, highlighting the struggles between parties and candidates through various election cycles. He draws from his extensive personal experiences in U.S. politics, promising insights into both well-known and lesser-documented aspects of these elections, thus preparing readers for a substantive exploration of how the highest office in the land has been contested and filled throughout American history.
