  A
WATERSHED ACCOUNT OF THE MOST IMPORTANT POLITICAL FRIENDSHIP IN AMERICAN HISTORY
   
  In Madison and
Jefferson, esteemed historians Andrew Burstein and Nancy Isenberg join forces to reveal the crucial partnership of two
extraordinary founders, creating a superb dual biography that is a thrilling and unprecedented account of early
America.
  
  The third and fourth presidents have long been considered proper and noble gentlemen, with
Thomas Jefferson’s genius overshadowing James Madison’s judgment and common sense. But in this revelatory
book, both leaders are seen as men of their times, ruthless and hardboiled operatives in a gritty world of primal
politics where they struggled for supremacy for more than fifty years.
  
  In most histories, the elder
figure, Jefferson, looms larger. Yet Madison is privileged in this book’s title because, as Burstein and Isenberg
reveal, he was the senior partner at key moments in the formation of the two-party system. It was Madison who did the
most to initiate George Washington’s presidency while Jefferson was in France in the role of diplomat. So often
described as shy, the Madison of this account is quite assertive. Yet he regularly escapes bad press, while
Jefferson’s daring pen earns him a nearly constant barrage of partisan attacks.
   
  In Madison and
Jefferson we see the two as privileged young men in a land marked by tribal identities rather than a united national
personality. They were raised to always ask first: “How will this play in Virginia?” Burstein and Isenberg
powerfully capture Madison’s secret canny role—he acted in effect as a campaign manager—in
Jefferson’s career. In riveting detail, the authors chart the courses of two very different presidencies:
Jefferson’s driven by force of personality, Madison’s sustained by a militancy that history has been
reluctant to ascribe to him.
  
  The aggressive expansionism of the presidents has long been underplayed, but
it’s noteworthy that even after the Louisiana Purchase more than doubled U.S. territory, the pair contrived to
purchase Cuba and, for years, looked for ways to conquer Canada. In these and other issues, what they said in private
and wrote anonymously was often more influential than what they signed their names to.
  
  Supported by a
wealth of original sources—newspapers, letters, diaries, pamphlets—Madison and Jefferson is a stunning new
look at a remarkable duo who arguably did more than all the others in their generation to set the course of American
political development. It untangles a rich legacy, explaining how history made Jefferson into a national icon, leaving
Madison a relative unknown. It tells nasty truths about the conduct of politics when America was young and reintroduces
us to colorful personalities, once famous and now obscure, who influenced and were influenced by the two revolutionary
actors around whom this story turns. As an intense narrative of high-stakes competition, Madison and Jefferson exposes
the beating heart of a rowdy republic in its first fifty years, while giving more than a few clues as to why we are a
politically divided nation today.
