William Jennings Bryan Boeken

    William Jennings Bryan was een vooraanstaand figuur in de Amerikaanse wetgeving en politiek aan het begin van de 20e eeuw, bekend om zijn krachtige welsprekendheid en zijn onwrikbare steun voor democratische idealen. Hij was een felle criticus van geconcentreerde financiële macht, die de zaak van de gewone man bepleitte en de geest van het populisme belichaamde. Bryan's politieke carrière werd gekenmerkt door zijn presidentiële campagnes, waarin hij zich inzette voor zaken als "Free Silver", anti-imperialisme en de strijd tegen monopolies. Zijn gepassioneerde verdediging van zijn overtuigingen, waaronder zijn verzet tegen het darwinisme, vestigde zijn nalatenschap als een belangrijke en vaak controversiële stem in de Amerikaanse geschiedenis.
