""Congress and the American Tradition"" is a comprehensive analysis of the role of the United States Congress in American politics. Written by James Burnham, a prominent conservative thinker and writer, the book explores the history and evolution of Congress from the founding of the nation to the present day. Burnham examines the constitutional framework of Congress, its powers and limitations, and the ways in which it has shaped American society and politics. He also delves into the political and ideological battles that have taken place within Congress, including debates over civil rights, foreign policy, and economic policy. Ultimately, Burnham argues that Congress is a vital institution of American democracy and that its role in shaping the nation's future should not be underestimated.
