The University of Kansas Press publishes Charles Delgadillo’s Crusader for Democracy: The Political Life of William Allen White

Charles Delgadillo, who took his Ph.D. at UC Santa Barbara in 2010, is a lecturer at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. His biography of William Allen White, the influential Republican journalist, reformer, and internationalist, recaptures an era when the phrase “liberal Republican” was not a self-evident contradiction.
