The Politics of Prohibition: American Governance and the Prohibition Party, 1869–1933
Lisa M. F. Andersen
This book draws on the history of America's longest-living minor political party - the Prohibition Party - to illuminate how American politics came to exclude minor parties from governance. It looks at pressure groups and ballot reforms, which created a threshold for organization and maintenance that required extraordinary financial and personal resources from parties lacking in both.
