James Madison is remembered primarily as a systematic political theorist, but this bookish and unassuming man was also a practical politician who strove for balance in an age of revolution. In this biography, the author focuses on Madison's role in the battle for religious freedom in Virginia, his contributions to the adoption of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, his place in the evolution of the party system, his relationship with Dolley Madison, his performance as a wartime commander in chief, and his views on slavery. In these pages Madison emerges as a remarkably resilient politician, an unlikely wartime leader who survived repeated setbacks in the War of 1812 with his popularity intact. And here the author also shows that despite his keen intelligence, the more Madison thought about the issue of race, the more muddled his thinking became, and his conviction that white prejudices were intractable prevented him from fully grappling with the dilemma of American slavery. 000455644 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000455644 60010 $$aMadison, James,$$d1751-1836. 000455644 650_0 $$aPresidents$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000455644 650_0 $$aStatesmen$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000455644 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xPolitics and government$$y1809-1817. 000455644 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xPolitics and government$$y1789-1815. 000455644 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000455644 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBroadwater, Jeff.$$tJames Madison.$$dChapel Hill : University of North Carolina Press, 2012$$z9780807835302$$w(DLC) 2011035946$$w(OCoLC)748290861 000455644 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000455644 8520_ $$bacq 000455644 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=867051$$zOnline Access 000455644 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:455644$$pGLOBAL_SET 000455644 980__ $$aEBOOK 000455644 980__ $$aBIB 000455644 982__ $$aEbook 000455644 983__ $$aOnline
