in a eulogy delivered upon the death of Sen-

Bibliography
"Note: The works of Allan Nevins and Herbert Agar are particu-
larly helpful in commencing a study of this nature; and Haynes's
history of trie Senate, Cate’s biography of Lamar, De Witt’s re-
count of the Johnson impeachment, and William S. White’s biogra-
phy of Taft are basic reference works which have been essential
to my research . — ^jfk
