Summary / Abstract (Note) | The publication of The American Voter in 1960 revolutionized the study of American voting behavior. Its University of Michigan authors, Angus Campbell, Philip E. Converse, Warren E. Miller, and Donald E. Stokes, were to share thousands of citations, but they were four different people, with different backgrounds, different personalities, and different career trajectories afterwards. This paper presents a chronological biography of The American Voter, from assembling the research team, through writing the book, to its aftermath, and ending with brief perspectives on each author. |
