In The Decades Preceding The Civil War, They Dominated American Congressional Politics As No Other Figures Did, And There Was Scarcely A National Issue Or Debate In Which They Took No Part. Now Merrill D. Peterson, One Of Our Most Gifted Historians, Brilliantly Recreates The Lives And Times Of These Great Men In This Monumental Collective Biography.Arriving On The National Scene At The Onset Of The War Of 1812 And Departing Political Life During The Ordeal Of The Union In 185052, Webster, Clay, And Calhoun Openedand Closeda New Era In American Politics.

In 1832, When They Came Together In The Senate For The First Time, United In Their Opposition Of Andrew Jackson, The Idea Of The 'Great Triumvirate' Was Born.
