Horsman: The New Republic
Horsman, Reginald, The New Republic: The United States of America 1789-1815, Essex, England, Longman (Pearson Education Ltd.) 2000 The New Republic is the first volume in a ten part series concerning the history of the United States. This installment is written by Reginald Horsman, with a preface by the series editor, Mark J. White. By White’s own omission the goal of the series is to bridge the gap, “between traditional and the ‘New History.’” Another objective is to provide within The New Republic and subsequent volumes a balance between “political and socio-cultural history.” If balance between the two was the publisher’s goal, then readers will find that Horsman falls a little short of this objective. Examples of the shortcomings of this text may be a reflection on Horsman’s, although well documented, source material. On more than one occasion, the reader will find the author citing himself as a reference. This is not to imply that the work is not a good representation of the time period it covers.
