Blair, Senate Republican and New England reformer, brings to life the crucial nature of the 1880s and the era of national politics following Reconstruction. Skillfully combining political history with a biography of a long-neglected figure, McKinney makes an important contribution to our understanding of Gilded Age."-- William A. Link, Richard J. Milbauer Professor of History at the University of Florida, ""Gordon McKinney provides a discerning and sympathetic account of Blair's tenacious struggles to use an idealized image of his home region as a legislative template.
