Virginia Senate
 The Papers of Thomas Jefferson, Volume 31: 1 February 1799 to 31 May 1800 As this volume opens, partisan politics in the United States are building to a crescendo with the approach of the presidential election. Working for a Republican victory, Jefferson consults frequently with Madison, Monroe, and others to achieve favorable results in state elections. He corresponds with controversial journalist James T. Callender. Sifting information from published rumors and private letters, he follows events in Europe, including Bonaparte's unexpected rise to power in France, and sees the value of his tobacco crop plummet as U.S. legislation cuts off the French market. Jefferson grows concerned at Federalist promotion of English common law in American jurisprudence and at proceedings in the Senate against William Duane, printer of the Philadelphia "Aurora." Drawing heavily on British legislative practice, however, as well as advice from Virginia, he begins in earnest to compile a manual of parliamentary procedures for the Senate. As president of the American Philosophical Society, Jefferson calls for reform of the United States census. He publishes an appendix to "Notes on the State of Virginia" defending his account of the Mingo Indian Logan's legendary 1774 speech. And Jefferson consults Joseph Priestley and Pierre Samuel Du Pont de Nemours about the curriculum for a projected new university in Virginia. While continuing the reconstruction of Monticello, he mourns the death of the infant girl of his younger daughter, Mary Jefferson Eppes.
 Just Good Politics: The Life of Raymond Chafin, Appalachian Boss by Raymond Chafin, Just Good Politics is the autobiography of Raymond Chafin, the savvy, free-wheeling political "boss" from Logan County, West Virginia, who managed political machinery for the elections of several state governors, U.S. senators, and, in 1960, for John F. Kennedy. Chafin's story includes the true account of his role in the historic primary that ended Hubert Humphrey's bid for the presidency and gave Kennedy the momentum he needed to win the national Democratic nomination. But Just Good Politics doesn't merely satisfy the reader's curiosity about the 1960 campaign. Just as fulfilling is Chafin's description of political culture in a place where mountain families scraped out difficult lives, where gunfire settled some issues, and where politics was "fist-and-skull". Chafin also describes his relationships with other West Virginia politicians, including U.S. senators Robert C. Byrd and John D. Rockefeller IV. With disarming candor, Chafin details the behind-the-scenes deals, political maneuvering, and, perhaps most important, the influence of larger bureaucratic interests on elections in the region. Just Good Politics describes deal making, rigged elections, and votes bought with cash and whiskey. It tells about men who were shot for siding with the wrong people in the wrong district on the wrong election day. Certainly, some of these stories are not shining examples of democratic principle. But Raymond Chafin comes across as a fascinating storyteller, and as a man who did the best he could for the people around him. "I never wanted much for myself", he says. "I just liked to win 'em". In Just Good Politics, the reader will find a genuine bridge between our increasingly homogenized Americansociety and a largely unexamined part of rural mountain life.
