Seller's Description:
Very good. 29 cm xviii, 739, [1]. Volume 4 ONLY. List of Tables. Political Party Abbreviations. State Abbreviations. Footnotes. Index, . Senate Document 100-20. This volume covers Members, Elections, Sessions, Party Leadership and Organizations. Committees, Senate Organization, and Powers. Robert Carlyle Byrd (born Cornelius Calvin Sale Jr.; November 20, 1917-June 28, 2010) was an American politician who served as a United States senator from West Virginia for over 51 years, from 1959 until his death in 2010. A Democrat, Byrd also served as a U.S. representative for six years, from 1953 until 1959. He remains the longest-serving U.S. Senator in history. Renowned for his knowledge of Senate precedent and parliamentary procedure, Byrd wrote a four-volume history of the Senate in later life. To help introduce the public to the inner workings of the legislative process, Byrd launched a series of one hundred speeches based on his examination of the Roman Republic and the intent of the Framers. Byrd published a four-volume series on Senate history: The Senate: 1789-1989: Addresses on the History of the Senate. The first volume won the Henry Adams Prize of the Society for History in the Federal Government as "an outstanding contribution to research in the history of the Federal Government." In 2004, Byrd received the American Historical Association's first Theodore Roosevelt-Woodrow Wilson Award for Civil Service. In 2014, The Byrd Center for Legislative Studies began archiving Senator Byrd's electronic correspondence and floor speeches in order to preserve these documents. This volume is intended as a reference work to supplement Volume I, II, and III of The Senate: 17890-1989. Many of the tables included her have been compiled by the senate Historical Office over the past years in response to questions received from senators, the news media, and the general public. The sources used have generally been official congressional materials, such as the Senate Journal and Executive Journal. The index focuses on topics rather than on individuals.
