Title: <i>Democracy</i>: Henry Adams and the Role of Political Leader
Abstract: In Democracy Henry Adams depicted how a post-Civil War political leader succumbed to the pressures of emerging impersonal society. Adams also described the subtle appeal of political power and how it could undermine even well-intentioned persons. Adams's descriptions contain biographical overtones and foreshadow the complexities that inhibit modern political leaders.
